Concordia Comfort Dog Program

Dawgs in Motion would like to introduce our new Therapy and Comfort Dog Program! Our facility is partnered with Concordia University and works together with the school in their Compassion Care program. This program utilizes the use of trained Therapy Dogs to assist in providing compassionate care and comfort to the community and beyond.

Dawgs in Motion sources their puppies from well-established responsible breeders and trains them to be Therapy Dogs! From the day they are picked up from the breeder these special pups are raised and trained extensively to prepare them to go out into the community and provide comfort to those who need it most. For the first month they live in-home with our Lead Trainer, Mandie, and her family. During this critical socializing window, Mandie works with the pups to expose them in a safe and controlled manner to all sorts of new sights, sounds, smells, textures, and events. After the first month our pups move in with our puppy raisers where they will continue to grow and learn over the course of around a year and a half. At the end of the training program our pups will hold titles in AKC STAR Puppy, AKC Canine Good Citizen, AKC Urban Canine Good Citizen, AKC Community Canine, and Therapy Assistance.

You can view our Comfort Dogs and their adventure journals in the drop-down tabs under the Concordia Comfort Dogs tab!
