The TEAM Task Support Class helps handlers train and refine their Service Dog’s real-world skills.
Using the TEAM approach (Teach, Engage, Adapt, Motivate) you’ll get step-by-step guidance, practical demonstrations, and personalized support to build reliable, confident behaviors for tasks, public access, and everyday life.
You’ve Put So Much Into This Journey…
You chose to train your own service dog because you believe in the partnership you are building.
You’ve spent countless hours practicing foundations, building communication, and learning how your dog thinks.
You celebrate the small wins, work through the setbacks, and keep showing up because you know the impact your dog can have on your daily life.
But service dog task training can feel overwhelming.
🐕🦺“Am I teaching this task the right way?”
🐕🦺“How do I know when my dog is ready for the next step?”
🐕🦺“Why does this work at home but fall apart in the real world?”
🐕🦺“How do I break this big task into smaller pieces my dog can understand?”
🐕🦺“Am I reinforcing the right thing?”
🐕🦺"What do I do when we get stuck?”
You don’t need more information thrown at you.
You need someone to help you understand what matters right now, what your next step should be, and how to keep moving forward with confidence.
Successful service dog tasks are not built overnight; they're created through a thoughtful process of teaching, practicing, adapting, and strengthening skills until your dog can perform reliably when you need them most.

This includes tasks such as Forward Momentum Pull (FMP), Counter Balance (CB), and light guide work such as Find the Car & Follow the Leader.
This includes tasks such as open/close doors, removing clothing, and any task where the dog puts their mouth on an object and pushes or pulls to move the object.
This section is for misc tasks that either do not fit into other categories or are complex, involving multiple foundations such as tug & retrieve for the same task.
The Task Resource Library provides quick access to the skills you need most, but that's just the beginning.
