PROVISION PROGRAM

The Provision Program:

The first thing we do is identify the client’s needs and provide our opinions of dogs that would be suitable for the client’s needs mentally and physically. We then find a reputable breeder from which to acquire a puppy.  Once we acquire the puppy (around 8-12 weeks of age) the trainning proccess is started.

Training Time Line:

  • There is a minimum of 18 months of training before we cunduct the pairing process. This is base soley on the complexity of the case.
  • There is a minimum of 2 weeks of pairing process (The education of the handler with the dogs needs, mainly used for those who do not live in area and can not do bonding sessions)
  • Minimum of 6 months of team training to prepare for the team certification. This time line is based off of the complexity of the case. The team certification is a 3 Or 5 day test. Each day  can be up to 4 hours long. The deration is based on the high-risk enviroment or life-threating condition(s) of the handler.
