Facility Dogs are extensively trained to

perform specific skills that support the community in which they work.

​

Facility Dogs are placed with working professionals in counseling offices, schools, funeral homes and other outreach ministries, social service

providers, courthouses and medical, physical therapy and mental health facilities.

​

Facility Dogs are trained to the same 

degree as service dogs placed with individuals.

​

A Facility Dog:

​

* Resides with the primary handler. The primary handler is responsible for handling and care for the dog.

* Both the primary handler and any other person designated to work with the Facility Dog must be trained to work with the dog and pass a public access test.
