Service Dog Team Coaching

Our Service Dog Team Coaching program supports both new and established service dog teams in building the skills, confidence, and partnership needed for success. At Thrive, we work with handlers to develop training plans tailored to their unique needs, whether you’re preparing a candidate dog for service work or refining skills in an existing team.

​

Each new client begins with a detailed assessment

to evaluate your dog’s suitability, current skills,

and specific task requirements. From there, we

create a program that is ethical, science-based,

and focused on setting both dog and handler up

for long-term success.

​

Our approach emphasizes public access readiness, task training, emotional well-being, and team communication, ensuring your service dog is prepared, confident, and working within their abilities while maintaining welfare and safety.
