Start Your Journey Today!
I am a disabled veteran and medically retired police officer. My service to my country and community has left me broken in ways most can't see. I suffered head injury that left me with debilitating migraines and other issues. Kendall and Chandler have been amazing, they have given me hope, a new K9 partner that will give me freedom I haven't felt in too long and most of all have been the very definition of professional. I have watched them during their training with other clients, observed the detailed selection process for my service dog and their willingness not to see me merely as a client but as a member of the Custom K-9 Service Dog family. I encourage you to speak with them about your needs. Whether it is for a pet or for a service dog your life and your pet/partner's life better. Semper Fi!!
Personalized Service Dog Partnerships
At Custom K-9 Service Dogs, we prioritize understanding the unique needs of each individual recipient. Unlike other programs that provide cookie-cutter service dogs, we focus on building personal relationships and offering ongoing support after placement. This commitment ensures that each partnership is tailored for success, enhancing the lives of both the recipient and their service dog.
Selection and Temperament Test of Your Ideal Dog
Recipients are empowered to choose between two temperament-tested, English Labrador puppies, allowing them to find a perfect match that resonates with their needs.
This decision goes beyond selecting a pet; it's about choosing a battle buddy who will support them through life's challenges. By being involved in this process, recipients gain a sense of ownership and confidence, fostering a deeper bond with their new companion.
Professional Service Dog Training
At Custom K-9 Service Dogs, each service dog undergoes over 2,000 hours of specialized training tailored to individual needs. This includes essential obedience skills, such as potty training and commands like sit, stay, and heel.
Dogs are also prepared for public access in various environments, including grocery stores, airports, and workplaces. Moreover, they learn Americans with Disabilities qualified tasks like Deep Pressure Therapy, object retrieval, and medical alerts customized to the unique needs of their handler.
This rigorous training not only ensures the dogs are highly skilled but also relieves disabled individuals from the burden of training, allowing them to focus on daily life with a dependable companion.
Bonding and Continued Training of You and Your Service Dog
Unlike many programs, Custom K-9 Service Dogs facilitates a strong bond through an intensive seven-day workshop after training. Recipients learn to work with their service dogs in real-world scenarios, enhancing their partnership.
Additionally, ongoing training and support are provided throughout the dog's career, ensuring both handler and dog thrive together in their journey.
Our Commitment to You
At Custom K-9 Service Dogs, we recognize the critical importance of accessibility and affordability, especially for those in greatest need. Our mission centers on providing life-changing service dogs to individuals with disabilities, including veterans coping with PTSD, those facing mobility challenges, and others with special circumstances, at a fraction of standard industry costs.
We believe that those who have served our country deserve every opportunity to live fulfilling, independent lives. As a military family ourselves, we are proud to offer substantial discounts to qualified veterans with disabilities as well as individuals with demonstrable special circumstances requiring the assistance of a service dog.
Discounted Rates for Qualified Applicants
Professional dog training, particularly for service dogs, is a significant investment. Obedience, public access, and specialized task training typically require highly skilled trainers whose hourly rates range from $80 to $100. Because comprehensive service dog training involves a minimum of 2,000 hours of hands-on instruction, the total cost to obtain a service dog through traditional channels can surpass $200,000. This figure reflects the dedication, expertise, and time commitment necessary to ensure each service dog meets rigorous standards for behavior, adaptability, and task performance.
For those who meet these criteria, we provide a fully trained service dog, custom-trained to the owner’s unique needs, for only $45,000. This price covers the complete process—from assessment and selection, through tailored training, to bonding the service dog team-ensuring each service dog is perfectly matched to their handler’s requirements.
