This is a yearlong course that meets every week for about 90 minutes. This class is for people who are disabled due to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Military Sexual Trauma (MST), or other Traumatic Injuries.

The class is free for veterans and first responders. Every week we teach the owner and dog new skills that are to be practiced throughout the week. The classes offer a safe place for people to learn about canine care, maintenance, and enrichment, as well as how to succeed as a service dog team and more.

Each team must pass a series of benchmarks every 2 months to move to the next level. They must then teach their dog at least 3 learned and visible tasks that the dog will do to directly mitigate the person's disability.

Skills might include the dog creating a bubble of space between the handler and other people, alerting to an oncoming panic, grounding the person if they have a panic or anxiety attack, helping the person find the exit in a crowded building, nightmare interruption and many other tasks.

These dogs work for an individual. Dogs become certified Service Dogs through 4 Paws 2 Freedom when they graduate from the program.

Our Newest Program!

This is a 6-7 month training program that teaches dogs to work in high stress environments to help the people who work there manage the work stress. Currently we are working in Fire Departments, Law Enforcement Agencies, City Halls, and Courthouses. Chaplaincy dogs go with Chaplains on calls to help comfort those in need.

These dogs work with an employee of the agency and have a Primary Handler that they go home with when they are off shift. The dogs typically work the same hours as the employee. The dogs are friendly, loveable and tend to be snuggly. They have extreme obedience skills to be appropriate with the many different people they will meet.

Facility/Peer Support Dogs work for an Agency or organization and must be endorsed by that program. Individuals may not train their dog to be a Facility/Peer Support Dog without the approval of the place they work.
