Why in-home Service Dog Placements?

At Dogs for Better Lives, our in-home placements are one of the things that makes us unique.

How it works:

A Certified Trainer travels with the dog to the new client’s home for one week of hands-on transition and skills-retention training.

Why we do it this way:

We believe in reducing the barriers for clients to receive their Service Dog, and our in-home placement model means clients don’t have to travel to our campus and the placement can be tailored for the client, which is better for both the dog and the client.

“I had thought about getting a Hearing Dog for a while, but I didn’t love how other organizations required I travel to them for training. I’m a nurse so getting that much time off from work, plus the cost of travel and lodging, would be challenging. Dogs for Better Lives brings the dog to the client and trains in your hometown, which made me choose DBL.”

-DBL Client Nicole
