About Disabled Advantage Service Dog Training & Consulting

Empowering Disabled Individuals Through Service Dog Training

At Disabled Advantage Dog Training & Consulting (DADTC), we help disabled individuals train their own service dogs. Our goal is to support your independence by teaching you how to train a dog that can help with daily life.

We understand that living with a chronic illness or disability can make things harder. That’s why we offer training that is flexible, supportive, and focused on what works for you.

A Trainer Who Understands

When you work with DADTC, you’re not just getting a dog trainer. You’re working with someone who is also disabled and has trained their own service dog.

I understand the struggles. I’ve been through the process myself. Now, I use my experience and training to help others succeed.

What You Can Expect

When you train with DADTC, you’ll learn:

  • How to talk to and understand your dog

  • How to teach your dog helpful tasks

  • How to build a strong bond with your dog

  • How to choose the right dog, if you don’t have one yet

Training a service dog takes time and effort. It can feel overwhelming at times. But you won’t be alone. I’ll be with you each step of the way, adapting the training to fit your needs.

Support at Every Step

You can also get help before you start full training. If you have questions or aren’t sure if your dog is ready, I offer coaching to guide you.

I also help with common problems like:

  • Sniffing or getting distracted in stores

  • Being too friendly with people

  • Trouble focusing on tasks

Whether you’re just starting or already training, I’m here to help you and your dog stay on track.

Our Promise to You

At DADTC, we believe everyone should have access to service dog training that is:

  • Honest

  • Supportive

  • Respectful of your time and energy

You’ll get real support from someone who truly understands your journey. Together, we’ll help you and your dog grow into a strong, confident team.

I don’t just teach you how to train your dog. I teach you how to incorporate your dog into your life, and live your absolute best life with them.
I’m a trainer because I enjoy the challenge...
