Consulting for Healthcare Professionals
We provide specialized consulting for healthcare professionals, including occupational therapists, mental health practitioners, and medical teams, who work with clients that may benefit from a service or assistance dog.
Every partnership begins with a thorough intake to understand the client’s needs, daily environment, and long-term goals. We offer guidance on assessing service dog suitability and client readiness, ensuring that both the individual and the dog are set up for success.

We can also help you with:

Understanding DOLA, AODA, and related legal frameworks

requests

Addressing training and behavioural concerns
