Braden and his Good Dog! Linc "Where in the past he has been quiet and not forward in participation, he is now actively a participant in all of his classes. He is a leader and has confidence in what he is doing. He has Linc with him in every class as he walks the halls with his friends to each class. Because of Linc he is never alone, and has also made some best friends at school and outside of school. Kids and families at school understand that Braden has a service dog and respect the boundaries of having such an important ally. They come over to Braden and ask to interact and it brings up conversation, and is simply amazing to see..." - Tony & Sedona Sanchez |
Good Dog! Autism Companions was founded by parents of a child experiencing autism. So, we truly understand the kinds of challenges each autism family can face. Over the years, we have created an amazing support community of Good Dog families, dog trainers, and autism professionals whose caring relationships make us proud to serve everyday.
We know that for each child and family living with autism, individual circumstances can be very different, that's why we consider each based on their specific needs. We custom match each service dog to his/her family and train both dogs and people accordingly.
Our dogs are intelligent, emotional beings, so we use only positive re-enforcement training methods for them as taught by Bonnie Bergin at Bergin University of Canine Studies. We also follow ADI (Assistance Dog International) standards and guidelines for all aspects of our program.
To help autism families who are interested in service dogs get more information, we provide a no-obligation, private introductory free phone chat with our director.
