Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
What is the best breed of dog to have for a service dog. Also do you train them or will we be training g them
Good question, there is no one breed that is best, the dogs selected are based on the disability they will be assisting with. We offer both a cooperative program where the dog lives with you and a board and train program where the dog stays with us.

Very very helpful!!!
Best advice given from the professionals highly recommended helped me a lot 🤘🏼
In just a short time they increased my dog's confidence level, enabling him to move on in the therapy dog process. Positive and affirming, just what we needed! No criticism or negative reinforcement like other programs. They are experts in training service and therapy dogs and they love what they do!
The staff and owner are very professional, caring and patient. I highly recommend The Academy of Canine Excellence for anyone looking to train a service dog. Briaun and Jacob are really great to work with and are very knowledgeable about training service dogs, correcting bad behaviors in dogs, and in helping choose the right type of dog for your needs.
