Important Information:
There are many variables that contribute to a dog successfully becoming a service dog including training, environment, health, socialization, random experiences and health. As such, no person or organization can ever guarantee that a dog will make it all the way through training and become a successful working dog. However, all our Service Dog Prospects are dogs that we believe have the traits that are ideal in service dog. All parents of service dog prospects have also have extensive health testing such as OFA elbows, OFA hips and/or PennHip, genetic clearances suitable for their breed, heart and eye clearances. All dogs sold as service dog prospects have all had: early neurological stimulation as puppies; been carefully and extensively socialized to a wide range of people, noises and objects; had positive experiences with other dogs and cats; received daily body handling and frequent massages; had weekly nail trimmings in a positive way; been trained using positive reinforcement; and have the foundations of basic obedience, focus, crate training and house training. Diggity Dogs Service Dog Prospects are usually Labrador Retrievers or Golden Retrievers and can be anywhere from eight weeks old to eight months old.
