In this episode of the Puppy Training Podcast, we’re diving into the exciting opportunity of training your own service dog from home. Together with Good Dog! Service Canines, we’re helping families shorten the long wait for a service dog by combining BAXTER & Bella’s online puppy training program with advanced service dog finishing work.

We’ll cover what a service dog is, their legal rights under the ADA, and how they differ from therapy dogs and emotional support animals. You’ll also learn why it’s essential to understand your state laws when training a service dog, what the public access test involves, and how task training is completed. Finally, we’ll talk about how to get started with your puppy and build the strong foundation needed for a future service partner.

If you’ve ever considered training your own service dog—or simply want to understand the process better—this episode will guide you through the first steps and introduce you to the support available along the way.
