STSE #58: Service Dog Training w/ Sunny Bravo, Part 2

In this episode we are continuing our conversation with dog trainer Sunny Bravo about service dogs. In our continued conversation we talk about what to look for when selecting a dog for service work. We also talk through who should be involved in the dog selection process. Once a dog has been selected Sunny likes to start the training process simply with body language, then adds leash pressure, toys and treats from there. We address what service teams should aspire to be and how much work goes into that level of reliability. Sunny was kind enough to share her experiences as both a service dog handler as well as a trainer, which gave us a more thorough understanding of everything that goes into service dogs.
