About
Assistance dog program: Dogs are bred, whelped, raised and trained to Assistance Dog International standards at the Duo facility to become service dogs. Once trained, the dogs can assist with mobility and hearing related tasks such as retrieving items and alerting to sounds. A facility dog is trained and placed with an individual who is an employee of a facility that works with at risk populations. Typically, the dog is used as a therapeutic tool by the handler, helping to initiate a response from the residents, patients or clients of the facility. These dogs have exceptional patience and temperament for working around all types of individuals. Courthouse facility dogs are placed with individuals who work with children and adults who have been mentally, physically and/or sexually abused. The dogs are used as part of the forensic interview process to help gather information from the victim. If necessary, the dog will accompany the victim to court if testimony is required. Duo monitors the relationship between the person and dog throughout the relationship. Assistance dogs are provided at no cost to the individual.
