Find the Support You Need With Professional Dog Training

Mobility Service Dog in Albuquerque / Santa Fe, NM

A mobility support dog can greatly enhance an individual's independence and quality of life. These service dogs assist with tasks that may be impossible or difficult for their handler to perform alone. A trained brace and mobility service dog can accompany their handler anywhere and is specifically trained to meet their mobility needs.

Tasks can include assistance with standing, transferring positions, providing stability, retrieving dropped items, fetching medication or specific objects, offering ambulatory support, recognizing and responding to emergencies, alerting others in both home and public settings, pulling a wheelchair for short distances, opening and closing doors, and providing emotional support.

Mobility support dogs not only increase independence but also provide stability, safety, and peace of mind, allowing for more active and fulfilling lives. Dog Training Elite New Mexico offers a highly successful mobility service dog training program, tailored to the handler's specific needs and inclusive of their family. By training mobility service dogs in the owner's home, we foster stronger bonds and more lasting results, creating a positive working relationship between the handler and their dog.

If you're seeking a mobility service dog in Albuquerque / Santa Fe, NM, Dog Training Elite is here to help.

About Mobility Support Dogs

Most brace and mobility support dogs wear a specially designed harness that allows both the dog and handler to safely and securely work together to provide stable ambulation. Those who could benefit from a service dog specifically trained in brace and mobility support include:

Those with vertigo and balance disorders often experience dizziness and instability when walking. A mobility and brace support dog can help orient, ground, and stabilize their handler during movement.
Physical disabilities such as cerebral palsy, MS, spina bifida, or back injuries can cause irregularities in balance, gait, stability, and ambulation. Mobility support dogs provide stability and counterbalance, enabling their handlers to walk more safely with assistance.
Certain medications or disabilities can impair alertness and the ability to safely walk or respond to emergencies. A service dog can be trained to guide a disoriented handler through daily activities and assist during emergency situations.
Those prone to health risks that cause unconsciousness can benefit from a service dog trained to retrieve help, call emergency services using a specialized phone, and reposition the handler if they are unable to breathe.
Conditions like muscle dystrophy, strokes, and other ailments can diminish strength, coordination, and stability, making it difficult to perform simple tasks like opening drawers or reaching light switches. A mobility service dog can assist with these daily tasks, providing invaluable support to those with diminished mobility.

    The training was educational and easy for our dog, Mika, and us to follow. She has fear based aggression with our other dogs. We trained hard and recently we saw the training in action when a door separating her from the rest of the pack was accidentally left open. She happily joined the pack and showed no aggression towards the other dogs. Before this training I would 100% guarantee she would have attacked one of the others. I'm so thankful for the tools we were given to help her live the best life in our home. Thank you to our trainer, Kayla, who had the patience and wisdom to impart.

    I can't say enough about Dog Training Elite. After a couple of reactivity events with my dog, Rex, I was feeling a bit lost and not sure what to do. I researched boarding programs and I stumbled upon Dog Training Elite while researching online, and they were immediately responsive and kind. They went through all of their training options based on the experiences/issues I brought up, and made sure I had time to ask questions and understand how everything worked. After some thought, I decided to go ahead with their full 8-week course (an hour of training once a week). The trainer I was assigned to work with (John) was extremely patient and knowledgeable. He noticed how nervous I was and helped tailor the exercises/lessons so that I could build my confidence as well as my bond with Rex. He made sure that each lesson was fun, and Rex was rewarded after some long sessions of focus. After the first lesson, I was feeling a bit down because the lesson didn't go as well as I had hoped. John explained that it often takes a second for the dog to adjust to our expectations. Once we did a bit more practice, I was amazed at how much Rex responded to each lesson. Knowing that I was struggling with Rex's reactivity, John suggested that we take Rex out into some more public spaces. From cafes to dog parks, he helped me focus on keeping Rex calm while we got him exposed to various triggers. I've already seen a huge change in Rex's demeanor out in public. Once you complete 5 weeks of lessons, you are allowed to take group classes. I've only gone to one of these so far, but it was amazing to see so many other people who were in the same boat as me with their dogs. John was extremely knowledgeable and knew exactly how to keep all of the dogs (and owners) calm. We had so much fun, and I can't wait to go to the next one. I had an incredible experience and would absolutely recommend Dog Training Elite to anyone struggling with their dogs. Everyone I spoke to was incredible to work with, and it was clear that they cared about every dog/owner they work with. I am so grateful for the experience they've given me and the bond I've been able to create with Rex. Thank you to everyone at Dog Training Elite!

    Dog Training Elite New Mexico is an exceptional training service. The staff is personable and super friendly. I can't say enough about all of them. When I first started Tilly in the program, she was shy and timid. Now she has the confidence to shine! She even just passed the Public Access test with flying colors! I recommend Dog Training Elite to anyone and everyone who is looking to train their fur baby from the simplest obedience traning to the most complex. ~ Jackie

    John did an amazing job with our pup. Our pup started showing reactive tendencies and would ignore any recalls. He would make people feel uncomfortable by his bark and appearance. After even a few sessions of just obedience trainings , our pup was starting to calm down. John really took his time and explained everything for us and was available whenever we had questions. Our pup is doing way better and is reactivity is way down. We will continue to go over the basics with him. Thank you to John and Elite Dog training for your time and guidance.

    We are very happy with our dog training through Elite Dog Training. Everyone with the company has been responsive and helpful. Our trainer, John, has been wonderful! He has really helped teach us and our dog and we are seeing great improvements! John has always been on time (early even) and kind. We’ve all had fun together, laughing and practicing with our dog. Now we look forward to the park training classes to continue on the journey. I definitely recommend Elite Dog Training!

    We had a wonderful experience with Dog Training Elite! John is an excellent trainer—professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely enjoyable to work with. He made every session engaging and easy to follow, and his calm, positive approach gave us confidence as new puppy owners. We saw real progress in our puppy's behavior while learning practical techniques we could continue using at home. We highly recommend John and Dog Training Elite to anyone looking for an effective, supportive, and enjoyable puppy training experience. Five stars!

    I cannot recommend Dog Training Elite enough! Before working with them, our Cooper was over reactive, barked constantly, and would pull on a leash, even though he had already been through other obedience classes! Robert, our trainer, completely changed our lives. He came to our home the first nine weeks, which made Cooper and us feel comfortable. We were introduced to the e-collar, teaching us how to use it safely and effectively as a communication tool. The results were amazing! He no longer barks, walks on a leash and just passed his Public Access Test!

    I love the one-on-one training! Kayla, our trainer, has been exceptional. Marley was extremely nervous at our first training, but Kayla quickly settled him. She is patient with our dog and my husband and me. We don’t always get it the first time. She is positive and encouraging. We actually enjoy our training sessions which is different from our previous experience with dog training. I highly recommend Dig Training Elite NM!

    It’s nice to sit down to dinner with 3 dogs and have a quiet, uninterrupted meal. Each dog knows where she’s supposed to be and stays there. Dog Training Elite has given us tools to address behavioral problems if they crop up.

    I contacted Dog Training Elite to help train my new service dog. From the first phone conversation, I could already tell it was going to be a good experience. I"ve worked with service dogs in the past, so I know good trainers and I know bad trainers. Kayla came out to my house to start the basic obedience, which was great. She was so patient and loving towards Helga. AFter that we started the group classes and these have really helped Helga socialize more and get used to the outdoors. We've been practicing for our Public Access test and hope to get that done soon so we can get to the service tasks. This company is very comprehensive and supportive with clients and doggos. I'm glad I found them before anyone else on my list.

    Kayla D was and is the most phenomenal trainer for my dog Ramon. Her expertise, patience, and genuine care has made every session engaging and effective. Ramon responds incredibly well to her guidance, and I’m thrilled to share that he is now service trained thanks to her exceptional coaching. The team of trainers, including both Kayla’s and Lacey, has been incredibly supportive and wonderful throughout our journey. Their combined knowledge, encouragement, and personalized approach created a training experience that was not only successful but also enjoyable. It has been a lot of fun working with them, and the positive energy they bring kept us motivated every step of the way. I wholeheartedly recommend Dog Training Elite to anyone seeking top-tier training, thoughtful instruction, and a caring, talented team. If you’re looking for excellent results and a team that truly cares about you and your dog, this is the place.
