Train your service dog with professionals in your corner.

Owner-trained service dogs are a marathon, not a mystery. We give you the evaluation, the roadmap, and the week-by-week guidance to get there — ethically, honestly, and at your pace.

Is this program right for you?

This is for handlers who are training (or planning to train) their own service dog and want professional structure instead of guesswork:

You have a dog — or are choosing one — and need an honest read on their suitability for service work
You want a clear path through foundations, task work, and public access prep
You want experienced trainers checking your progress, not internet forums
You want the truth, kindly delivered — including when a dog isn't suited for the work. That honesty protects you, your dog, and the service dog community.

Prefer a fully trained service dog? Our placement program — over 2,000 hours of specialized training per dog — is a $45,000 investment. Learn more or contact us here.

How it works

1️⃣ Evaluation & consultation

A 60-minute session (in person or online) where we assess your dog's temperament and foundations, answer your questions, and map your training plan.

2️⃣ Train with the program

Work through the Working Dog Vault — task work, public access prep, and specialized obedience — and log every rep in your CDH training log. Plus: a monthly live session with Kendall to answer your questions, troubleshoot, and set direction. It's a trainer in your back pocket — and every session is recorded, so you never miss one.

3️⃣ Progress with check-ins

Add in-person or online sessions ($100/hr) whenever you want hands-on help, and build toward real-world reliability — milestone by milestone.

Ethical guidance, start to finish

Service dog training is our specialty — it's in our name. We've spent thousands of hours preparing dogs for real public access: grocery stores, airports, workplaces, and everywhere life happens.

And Kendall knows this journey from your side of the leash. After being diagnosed with epilepsy and hemiplegic migraines in college, she trained her own first medical response service dog — and her current service dog, Boomer, is by her side every day.

No guilt. No judgment. No false promises. Just clear communication, a plan customized to your needs, and trainers who treat your journey — and your dog — with the respect this work deserves.

From the Club Doghouse community

"They have been excellent instructors."

Kendall and Chandler have been helping my family with our 2 pet dogs and more recently have been training us on how to raise our service dog puppy. We attend both private and group classes with them.

"I felt understood — and zero judgment."

Kendall helped explain how we would train scent work for my specific disease in a way I could understand and not feel overwhelmed. Everything they teach my puppy and I is catered to his and my special needs… They lifted a huge weight off my shoulders and make this daunting illness feel more manageable. I absolutely trust these two in what they are doing to lead us down the right path.
