Each of our dogs is tailor trained to meet the specific needs of their partner.
Some of the physical assistance tasks we can train include:
- retrieving dropped items from the floor
- standing and bracing to assist an individual who has fallen to the floor
- turning on and off light switches
- retrieving the telephone, remote control, and other items by name
- providing counterbalance support as a person walks or climbs stairs
- helping a person to dress and undress
- assisting individuals in rolling over in bed
- opening and closing doors, cabinets, and drawers
- retrieving a snack and/or medication from a refrigerator
