About Dawgs at Work

Pet and working-dog training in Saukville

Dawgs at Work offers professional dog training and behavior consulting, specializing in therapy dog, emotional support dog, service dog and companion dog training. Its mission is confident, well-mannered dogs that do well in real-world settings.

Pet dog training

Pet dog services include help finding the right puppy or dog, group obedience classes, private in-home and off-site training, immersive Puppy Bootcamp programs and virtual coaching. Training is practiced in public and community settings so dogs learn to work around everyday distractions.

Therapy, support and service dogs

Therapy and ministry dog programs serve individuals, churches, schools and organizations. Emotional support and psychiatric service dog programs are offered either as full programs where the team raises and trains the dog, or as guided owner-training programs. Dogs may work toward AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy, Canine Good Citizen and related titles.

Method

The site describes a LIMA-based approach rooted in positive reinforcement and canine psychology.

What to ask

Ask which program fits your goal, whether your dog trains with you or with the team, and how the service area works for your program, since the site says it varies by program.
