THERAPY DOG TRAINING (TDU CERTIFIED)
Therapy dog training is focused on creating calm, well-mannered dogs that can bring comfort, connection, and positivity into a variety of community settings.
At Stellar K9 Services, we prepare dogs and handlers to work together as trusted therapy teams in schools, healthcare facilities, retirement communities, and more.
What We Focus On
Calm, reliable obedience in distracting environments
Proper manners and neutrality around new people and settings
Confidence in public access-style situations
Handler communication and team consistency
Gentle, stable temperament development
Our goal is a dog that is steady, friendly, and appropriate in any environment they visit.
Real-World Therapy Work
Our therapy dogs regularly visit retirement homes, assisted living facilities, schools, and other community spaces—providing comfort, emotional support, and meaningful interaction.
We also support community needs during challenging times, including post-disaster visits such as after hurricanes, where therapy dogs can offer comfort and stress relief.
