THERAPY DOG TRAINING

At Mason Dixon K9, we recognize the life-changing impact of therapy dogs in providing comfort, emotional support, and relief to those in need. Our specialized therapy dog training program equips dogs with the skills to brighten hospital patients’ days, ease stress for first responders, and uplift individuals facing emotional challenges. Therapy dogs, like Millie, embody the quiet heroism of service animals, making a profound difference in countless lives.

To qualify, dogs must complete AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) training and certification, along with vest work to ensure proper behavior differentiation. Our comprehensive training includes:

• Non-verbal command mastery for seamless communication
• On-and-off vest training to reinforce appropriate behavior in different settings
• Socialization skills to ensure confidence in diverse environments
• Public outings for real-world readiness and adaptability

Please note: Therapy dogs are not permitted in restricted spaces such as restaurants and other places dogs are not allowed. 

At Mason Dixon K9, we prioritize structured, results-driven training that fosters trust, obedience, and confidence, ensuring therapy dogs are prepared to serve with compassion and reliability.
