About Atlanta Service Dogs LLC

What they do

Atlanta Service Dogs offers basic obedience training, public access training, behavior and aggression modification, and what it calls medical-grade service dog training, plus handler instruction, breeding and a foster program. Training runs on site, in group classes and in the client's home — “wherever your dog learns best.” The site publishes a six-step process from consultation to certification and placement, and a Who We Serve page covering mobility, emotional support, developmental needs and companion dogs.

Background

The business is based in Atlanta and states it serves the entire southeast, listing 15+ years of experience, seven trainers and four service specialties. It states it was founded by its lead trainer, Ripley, described as “a CPDT-KSA certified professional with nearly 20 years of experience.”

Useful to know before you call

The site's own FAQ addresses Georgia specifics: under the ADA, an individual with a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual or other mental disability that substantially limits one or more major life activities may qualify for a service dog, and it notes that in Georgia there is no state registry or special ID required. The published entry point is a free consultation to work out whether a service dog is the right path.
