Do you train dogs for Dementia & Diabetes.
Hi, We do not train dogs for dementia. We have pilot project underway to train diabetes alert service dogs. We hope to offer this expertise in 2024.

Do y’all train service dogs for Tourette’s?
Thank you for the inquiry. We currently do not train service dogs for Tourette's.

Im not sure, they probably would...ask the director?
Community answer · Tonya · 2023-09-21
We just adopted a 7 yo male boxer who apparently hasn't been civilized beyond being housebroken. I haven't trained a dog since we had a puppy 45 years ago and don't know where to start. Do you have regular basic classes for adult dogs?
Yes, please see our website at thedogalliance.org

Community answer · Patricia Horton · 2020-09-21

Are there Grant's for dogs?
Our community has made contributions via grants and individual gifts to support service dogs for veterans. Sadly, we have not yet found a founding source to provide service dogs for civilians. For civilians, we have priced our Train Your Own Service Dog as low as possible. We also have a crowd funding tool to help you raise funds for your training efforts. Please contact me via the contact page on our website or call our front desk at (512) 335-7100 if you would like to discuss further. Thank you for the inquiry.

Do u charge for boarding and training on service dog if I have a dog to train already?
We do not currently (Dec 2018), provide board and train. We do however offer a Train Your Own Service Dog program. Here is the link for more information: https://www.thedogalliance.org/training-your-own-service-dog
Community answer · Dog Alliance Training Center · 2019-09-21
They don't board and train.

Do you have small dogs to carry with you, fit in a carrier to take everywhere you go, that can sleep with me, 4yrs old, lap dog.
We do not. All our current service dogs in training will be 50 pounds or larger as adults. Unfortunately, we have not researched small dog breeders. There are a few small dog rescue groups in town, but we have not researched them either. Sorry we can't be more helpful.
Community answer · Dog Alliance Training Center · 2019-09-21
Do you ever get small dogs.? And not to take anything from your business, but do you know any breeders for smaller dogs, in general not associated with anyone?
Community answer · Deborah driver · 2019-09-21
I am 12 and I have been helping animals basically my whole life, I am also very responsible. I am three months from being 13, and I am very eager to start right away, would I be aloud to volunteer here?
Only if you bring a parent with you.
Community answer · Sutton · 2019-09-21
Do you have hypoallergenic dogs?
We are not a traditional shelter. We train service dogs for veterans. Currently, we have two non-allergenic dogs in training.
Community answer · Dog Alliance Training Center · 2019-09-21

Community answer · Melissa Meadow · 2018-09-21

Ive been training at the dog alliance with my dog Sammie. Sammie is being trained to be a service dog . The classes are fantastic and i must say the trainers are all the best. Their love for the animals and people is absolutely incredible. The Austin VA clinic sent me to the dog Alliance and im have been very happy with the training and when you need to ask a quetion if you and your dog just do not grasp what your being taught , i promise you to just ask for help and they will give you all the answer until you both understand. I would recommend the dog alliance to anyone interested in traing their dogs whether Veterans or non veterans. Their the Best.

We love the Dog Alliance. They offer so much in the way of education for dogs and for the general public! We have had our grandsons enrolled in the camps they hold for children- educating them at different levels with and without their own dogs. One of my very favorite things they do is train puppies to give to a Veteran in need. Today, although they are closed, we have a photo opportunity with Michelle Cantu. I'll add more detail after the shoot! The photo shoot was in an all purpose room that is attached to the main building. Michelle was assisted by her son Noah-Who loves dogs and was a great playmate for Nani to help her by playing with her and getting her acclimated. Nani gets maybe a C+ for cooperation. Different color backgrounds and many many many shots were taken so I'm sure we will have some beautiful pictures to choose from.

Not happy with the training provided for my daughters service dog. We spent tons of money on training for this dog when they should have just told us our dog should not be a service dog and help us find a dog that could do service work. We ended up getting help from another trainer and are so happy we did, with the help of the other trainer my daughter now has a new service dog and my daughter is now thriving and has become a dog trainer herself. If you are looking for a service dog for yourself or your children we do not recommend going here.
