Helping Your Dog Share Their Love
A well-trained therapy dog can share boundless love, affection and comfort with those in need. However, the process of becoming a therapy dog takes commitment, hard work and thorough obedience training. Sit Means Sit Fort Worth can help local dogs take the first crucial steps on the road toward full therapy dog certification. Although Sit Means Sit Fort Worth does not currently provide service dog training or full therapy dog certification, we can instill strong obedience skills that take into consideration your special goals for your pup, and that will assist them in achieving their final certs.
How We Train Therapy Dogs
Therapy dogs offer comfort and optimism to people in challenging situations. To do this, they must confidently enter places other dogs might find intimidating, such as hospitals, nursing homes, schools, military bases, and disaster zones. They also need to handle constant petting, hugs, and exposure to new sights, sounds, and smells without fear. As a result, therapy dogs undergo specialized training to stay calm, respond appropriately, and remain alert in these environments. With our help, your dog can learn essential therapy dog skills such as:
- Polite greetings
- Controlled walking
- Response to calling
- Ignoring distractions
We will also work hard to eliminate aggression, anxiety and reactivity in your dog, enabling them to feel secure not matter what scenarios they encounter.
