Seizure Response Dog in Orlando, FL

Restoring Independence with Medical Response Dogs

Epilepsy affects approximately 3.4 million Americans and can significantly impact their daily routines. Many individuals with epilepsy avoid going out in public due to the fear of seizures and the potential risks, such as falling or injury. This leads to a loss of independence and a reduced quality of life. Fortunately, service dogs trained specifically for epilepsy can provide critical support.

Medical Response Dogs with Orlando seizure alert dog training alert their caretakers and those nearby of an imminent seizure, helping prevent falls and injuries. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), individuals with epilepsy can bring their service dogs into public spaces, empowering them to regain independence and improve their quality of life.

How Medical Response Dogs Help Those with Epilepsy

Medical Response Dogs can detect changes in a person’s scent that occur just before a seizure, allowing them to warn their caretakers in advance. This early warning can provide enough time to seek safety and avoid injury. Almost any dog with the right temperament can be trained to perform these tasks.

If you or a loved one suffers from epilepsy, a specialized Medical Response Dog training program can be life-changing. Dog Training Elite offers programs tailored to train dogs as Medical Response Dogs, providing vital assistance to those living with epilepsy.

For specialized training, it is best to start with puppies. Our Medical Response Dog training program is intensive and prepares your dog for a life of service.

Service dogs must have a calm temperament and they must be first trained in obedience. Dogs that have aggressive, shy, or disobedient characteristics cannot be service dogs. After completing obedience programs, service dogs must undergo specialized skill training. An expert assessment will determine whether or not the dog is suited for medical alert services at this point. If so, they dog will be trained to detect oncoming seizures and warn the individual. Response dogs warn their caretakers in various ways, including: barking, close eye contact, pawing or licking, and or circling. Additional behaviors can be taught to protect the caretaker, such as breaking a fall by standing behind the individual, turning on lights or opening doors, and alerting others to the situation.

If you are looking for Orlando seizure alert dog training to assist an individual with epilepsy, Dog Training Elite is here to help. Our expert trainers are experienced with various types of service dog training programs. Medical Response service dogs can bring independence, increased quality of love, and companionship.

    We couldn’t say enough wonderful things about Dog Training Elite North Orlando, Craig and his team. Our mini bernedoodle, Koa started with the in-home puppy training program at 12wks where all training was individualized to him and us (we needed training too 😉). We have seen tremendous changes in Koa’s at home and social obedience commands and look forward to continuing to work with Craig and his team to have him Therapy Dog certified. From basic obedience training to intensive therapy dog training, Elite Dog Training North Orlando is our trusted partner in all our dog training needs.

    Maria was life changing for us and our dogs! We rescued two pups, Maverick and Goose, that were bonded and started getting into fights 6 months after we got them. Maria came in and taught us how to provide better structure for them to thrive, become more confident, and even just enjoy being young pups instead of consistently in a fight or flight mode. We are so grateful to Maria and the team, and highly recommend this program to anyone and everyone.

    Chelsea and Cheyenne were attentive to our dog needs since the very beginning, and have carried out the 10 days camp training prioritizing things: Brownie Fox, our young Pomeranian, is now much better in terms of behavior and obedience, and on a much better shape to continue the learning curve! Thank you and truly recommended!

    We had a wonderful experience with Dog training Elite North Orlando. We adopted a 4 year old rescue that had some reactivity after being abandoned and stuck in the shelter for 6 months, and she is also incredibly excitable. Craig and Miriam helped us understand her and even our other dog better, and taught us how to work with and train them! She’s so much better now and we are way better equipped to give her a great life. I’d definitely recommend them!

    Craig has helped me to train my 8 month old Heavapoo. She now gets in her create and I can leave her there while I go out. I live in a Condo so barking could be a problem. She now responds to quiet. Could not have done this without help. Highly recommend Dog training Elite.

    I have never been so impressed by a dog training company before these guys. When I first started thinking about a service dog, I had no idea what it would be like. As I met staff (Chelsea, Cheyanne, Maria, and the rest of the crew) they listened to my needs and gave their hearts beyond my expectations. All my hopes were fulfilled and then some., Dog Training Elite Orlando has been nothing but by my side this whole year during the training process with my now Service dog, Raven”. I can say that I have been truly blessed ❤️ Thank you all! You are the best in my book, 😊👍

    I cannot say enough about Dog Training Elite Orlando! One month ago we had a 3 month old puppy who was biting everything, jumping on everything (furniture, counters, people) and was only interested in chewing on our blankets, socks, shoes, and couch, and was completely uninterested in his toys. One month and 4 in-home training sessions later and we have THE happiest, most well-behaved boy who loves his toys AND loves training! Cheyenne and Maria have both been amazing and the results speak for themselves. Best decision we ever made! If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

    This company is by far the greatest I have ever come across during my 15 years of owning dogs. Maria was my trainer for my dog Cairo, she is always on time and is very knowledgeable. I’ve never had any issues with her not showing up or feeling like my money was wasted on any of the training days. The company is very flexible with options depending on what you need and that’s helped me out greatly due to my work schedule. We just finished the advanced obedience training and will be moving on to the service dog training soon. My dog has made vast improvements since I started this program and I am very excited to start the next phase of his training.

    When I contacted Dod Training Elite I was desperate because my baby Neo was so crazy. He would jump on people, bark at everything and everyone, walk on two paws pulling on his leash, hide when it was time to get him in his crate and so many other things. As soon as the first class we did with Maria we noticed a huge change on Neo. He immediately started listening to us and with each class things got better and better. One thing I was hesitating at first was using the training collar because I was scared it would hurt Neo. Maria was so helpful to explain how it worked and without the collar I don’t think we would have been able to train him. Besides Maria everyone else is so helpful and friendly. They always answer all my questions and communicate in the best way possible. A huge plus is the group classes on Saturdays because that’s extra training Neo gets with other dogs and the classes are so well organized. I highly recommend them!

    Maria was our trainer and did amazing with our dog Lambeau. He now listens to all the commands we’ve worked on and can go back on taking walks as a family. Look forward to our future vacations with our pup and all thanks to Maria and Elite Dog Training! We highly highly recommend it’s life changing!

    We are so unbelievably happy we went through with dog training with Dog Training Elite. One of our dogs had some scary reactivity issues that had us considering rehoming him and the other was a puppy with no manners. Today we have two dogs who are able to stay on their place and focus on us when new people come into our house. Barely even a bark!! Craig is an amazing dog trainer who brings such a calm energy to us and our dogs when we start to get stressed out. Within 5 weeks of Craig coming to our house, our dogs are completely different. We were also really impressed with that lack of a sales pitch Craig gave us on our first meeting. We looked into a few different training facilities and Craig felt the most upfront with what he recommended (not like he was looking for more money) which was a nice change of pace. We can’t recommend Craig and this company as a whole more, worth every penny.
