Current puppies in training
Below are our dogs who are currently in training in order to be placed as started, partially trained or fully trained service dogs. NOTE: These dogs will be placed with the best match for their individual strengths, personalities and skills. We will work with you to pair the best fit for your needs and situation, rather than on a first-come, first-served basis.
Note that the below descriptions are just meant to be cute little personality descriptions. Many of these puppies’ strengths and weaknesses will not come out until they are nearer adulthood, and decisions about their matches will not be made until they are close to fully trained and matured.
Our wait list is currently OPEN to new applicants. Start with a consultation here!
Bill
Placement Pending
Bill is from our Rainbow litter and had a rough start in life with being diagnosed with juvenile cellulitis at 4 weeks of age; but that never slowed him down for a moment. He is a serious and focused worker and has always loved any new challenge thrown his way. He loves to stay busy so would enjoy competing in sports on top of his work as a service dog! As of July 2026 he is close to matching with someone on our waitlist and should finish his training by November of this year!
Bob
Placement Pending
Bob is from our Rainbow litter and is the world’s happiest and cuddliest dog. His favorite things are to forcibly cuddle his handler, snooze on the couch and trip his handler while she’s cooking. But don’t let his laid-back energy fool you, this boy LOVES any opportunity to work and will have an item back in your hand before you realize you’ve dropped it. As of July 2026 he is close to matching with someone on our waitlist and should finish his training by November of this year!
Matilda
Available
Earliest placement date: 12/21/2026
Matilda is from our Resistance litter and is forward, active and excited to work and meet new people! She loves participating in all of the training we have offered her and is happy with any outing we take her on. She is sensitive in all the best ways and will likely be an excellent psychiatric or medical alert service dog.
Arthur
Available
Earliest placement date: 12/21/2026
Arthur is from our Resistance litter and is a strong self advocate and is very demanding for what he needs. He has a very good head on his shoulders and is very balanced, despite being an adolescent intact boy. He’s also VERY large, which we hope means he will thrive in light mobility tasks for someone who needs a larger dog.
Emma
Available
Earliest placement date: 12/21/2026
Emma is from our resistance litter and is such a nice, driven puppy. She has a lot of independence and loves to stay busy, but still has a great off switch when it’s needed. She, like Bill, would love to have a dog sport hobby on top of her work as a service dog. We think she will be an excellent helper for any person with a neurodivergent, psychiatric or chronic illness disability.
Edward
Available
Earliest placement date: 11/03/2027
Edward and his sister Rose were sent to us by Warrior Canine Connection in Maryland and are excellent additions to our program! Edward is a very forward, confident and serious little boy. He will sit at attention very dutifully whenever he detects that a treat might be an option, and is a quick learner with the new skills we’re introducing. He loves to attend any outing we’ve brought him on and we haven’t seen any fear out of him at all!
Rose
Available
Earliest placement date: 11/03/2027
Rose and her brother Edward were sent to us by Warrior Canine Connection in Maryland, and are excellent additions to our program! Rose is a little softer than her brother, but in all the nicest ways. She is very cuddly and handler focused. The only fear we’ve seen out of her was immediately and fully resolved with support from her handler. She adores training and is very happy to be out with the people she loves!
Grace
Available
Earliest placement date: 11/05/2027
Grace and her sister Jane are additions from BEST Service Dogs in California and are half sisters to our Eloise (aunts to our Rainbow and Resistance litters). Grace is an all-around excellent puppy who likes to share her opinions on the things she loves and hates. She is super easy to handle and absolutely loves any challenge we hand her.
Jane
Available
Earliest placement date: 11/05/2027
Grace and her sister Jane are additions from BEST Service Dogs in California and are half sisters to our Eloise (aunts to our Rainbow and Resistance litters). Jane is a super active, busy and determined little girl, and our most skilled escape-artist. She is confident and happy, thrilled to participate in any activity that includes interacting with her favorite humans or earning kibble rewards.
Past placements
Below are puppies who were raised and trained through our program before being placed with their forever partners.
Alex and “David”
Placed: May 13th, 2025
David turns into butter the moment you start handling him, and has a knack for gazing deep in your soul when returning eye contact. He was an excellent match for Alex, and will be a very loyal and committed companion; he is one of those puppies that just instantly heals everything that hurts. With those natural traits and a careful upbringing and training, he will do a great job as Alex’s allergen detection and autism support dog.
Ethan and “Joy”
Placed: May 6th, 2025
Joy has what we call a “sparkle”. She’s bouncy, joyful and a happy worker. She was the best fit for Ethan, who is currently being mentored in our program to become a certified service dog trainer in the future. We will also continue to evaluate Joy’s health, temperament and structure through adulthood when she will be considered as a breeding prospect
Abigail
Placed: February 4th, 2025
Abigail has the sweetest and most biddable temperament that every Golden Retriever should have. She’s happy to go along with whatever activity her handler suggests, and does so confidently and cooperatively. She will continue training with her handler for the next 12-18 months and will become skilled in a wide variety of tasks and public access as a new city girl!
Meg and “Wanda”
Placed: January 13th, 2025
Wanda is laid back but not sensitive, and food motivated but not pushy. She joined Meg as a city-dweller and regular subway commuter and took to the new environment almost immediately. She will continue training for the next 8 months in finishing her task list, including guide work, hearing alerts and medical alert and response; in the meantime, Wanda continues to impress with her public access skills, and has already finished training in one of her tasks.
nicole and “evelyn”
Placed: January 18th, 2024
Evelyn was the first puppy our program added after moving to Connecticut, and has made us very proud by being the first to graduate! She has been trained to perform anxiety alerts, deep pressure therapy, emergency button activation, medication retrieval, behavior disruption and forward momentum pull to exits/safe places. Since being placed, she has assisted Nicole in living an independent and healthy life. She has successfully prevented psychiatric emergencies from escalating, and has been a great addition to Nicole’s treatment plan.
Brina and “Charlotte”
Placed: February 17th, 2021
Charlotte was the final puppy raised and trained through our program before we moved away from California. Since being placed, she’s been a world traveler: Planes, cruises, hospital stays, ambulance rides, state fairs, and much more. She is happiest when she is working, both at home and in public. Her long list of tasks include medication retrieval, forward momentum pull, medical alert, deep pressure therapy, dropped item retrieves, emergency button activation and seizure response. We are very proud of Charlotte!
