Getting to know Summit
Summit Service Dogs was born with the intention of helping children to reach for the top of their mountain. To achieve greatness & to “reach the peak” as summit is defined. The climb may not be easy & there may be challenges along the way, but with a Summit Service Dog as a partner by their side greatness is attainable.
We specialize in service dogs for children. These highly trained dogs enable a child & their family who may otherwise feel isolated & alone to gain inclusion, safety & independence. They also serve as a motivator, companion, stress reducer & foster social interactions.
Summit Service Dogs raises & trains their dogs ethically & with integrity. Summit dogs are trained using positive reinforcement & without the use of adverse techniques or equipment. At Summit Service Dogs you will find Labradors that are purposefully bred, raised & trained. Stable temperaments, excellent health & quality genetics are found in the dogs that make up Summits program. You will also find the staff at Summit Service Dogs are knowledgeable, passionate & committed to quality & professionalism.
