Just wanted to put a little update of Guinness our Diabetic Alert Service Dog !! Guinness is doing great during all lectures, on those busy college buses and is even staying focused around all that delicious food in the dinning hall !

I just wanted to share with you guys some pictures from my trial !! I compete in PSA (protection sport association), I was awarded my PDC !! This sport is compromised of a series of protection and obedience scenarios that become more difficult as you go up in level (PDC, PSA1 , PSA 2, PSA 3) .

How It Works

Devoted Canine Training offers a range of training packages to meet any dog owner’s needs, from complete beginner to advanced obedience. Unlike other “copy and paste” training programs in the region, each of Devoted Canine’s programs is specifically tailored to the individual dog at hand.

Owners work one-on-one with Diana and her three model dogs: Aria, Aroe, and Zeke. In the process, you’ll learn to communicate with your dog better, and you’ll gain a variety of approaches to be confident with their dog in any situation.

Whether you are dealing with reactivity, leash training, recall, or any other challenge, Devoted Canine Training will work with you and your dog to achieve excellent results. Learn more about the packages that Devoted Canine Training offers below:
