Find the Support You Need With Professional Dog Training

Mobility Service Dog in Sarasota, FL

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 Southwest Florida 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 Sarasota, FL, 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.

    A heartfelt thank-you to Renee Juliano for the two full days she spent working with Buddy at the Elite Training Center. She helped him build confidence in situations that mirror everyday life and provided clear, step-by-step instructions with accompanying videos so I can continue the work at home. I also want to recognize Kelsie, whose excellent training over the past four months has given Buddy such a strong foundation. Her patience, guidance, and encouragement have meant so much to both of us. These two days with Renee built on that foundation and marked another important step in Buddy’s journey. I am grateful to both trainers for their care and dedication—and for helping me learn alongside him!

    Do it. I used Walker K9 Training to take and train my 9 month old male Cane Corso, Rocco. It was in May. I interviewed many dog trainers, and immediately decided to use Walker K9 Training. Chad is a police officer K9 trainer and his wife Kelly is just as knowledgeable and awesome. I knew with a powerful Cane Corso, that I would be an irresponsible owner if I didn't have him professionally trained and would struggle to control his power, etc. I wanted trainers that specialize in powerful breeds, down to super tiny dogs bc I also have two tiny teacup chihuahuas. They're awesome and humble and love what they do. When I walk Rocco in my development, and practice his leash commands...people come out of their homes or stop while driving and compliment how well trained he is and ask who trained him. Highly recommend. They're very willing to help and visit if needed long after the fact. I also now board him there whenever I need, and it's far more affordable vs boarding at my vet. Plus he gets their training refreshers. I've given their info to my vet office who asked about Rocco's training, and anyone that asks.

    Today we graduated from one on one training. On to group sessions next week. I couldn't be more pleased with the results of Jessica's training. I've been diligent with the practice too. My little Corky is so smart and I will reinforce the training Jessica has provided.

    We met Jessica as part of a consultation. She is very patient and explained everything clearly. We decided to go ahead with the training based on our experience with her. Updating this review after our first session. Still 5 stars! Jessica ran through the first few basic behaviors and made sure we understood and were doing it correctly so we can continue practicing until the next session.

    Kelsie is incredibly good at zeroing in on the specific issue at hand with our Enzo. She quickly identifies a way to work through that issue to get the training on track. She is the greatest! Thank you!

    I have so much to say about Dog Training Southwest Elite. They have programs for your dog with highly caring trainers. My dog completed a two-week obedience training with two wonderful Trainers Renee and Alisa. Every day they will send you a video of your dog's training, also their play time, it is "Hilarious". They are so Professional and Caring. My wife and I found their day camp is well above that we could ever expect. Their support is ongoing, and you will feel like family. Renee is AWESOME!

    Dog Training Elite is an amazing group to work with you and your dog. They came in an assessed my dog and today we started training. I have a brain injury and the trainer Jessica worked with my dog and me, her knowledge and kindness was so great. Knowing my limitations she made sure that I understood everything she was teaching. Next my dog started his daily classes with Renee and she is amazing, she has my dog all day and when I pick him up we go over our homework. She also provides videos to help with his training. Then there are the group classes that you sign up for that help you continue with your dog training journey. These classes are so great for keeping your training on track. All of the trainers are amazing. I highly recommend this group, they are the complete package!

    Jessica is fantastic! She works with both you and your dog to help you understand what needs to be accomplished in the task youre asking of your dog. She takes her time and she answers and questions, shes also really good with clarification if youre slightly confused. She's also really amazing with the dog. I would highly recommend her and Dog Training Elite undoubtedly to anyone.

    Thank you Vets Helping Heroes organization program for sponsoring my dog sailor to be trained by Dog Training Elite Southwest Florida to become my Service Dog. As a Disabled Navy veteran their training was Elite the very best. I also would like to send out a special shout out to Renee Juliano, who has been my dog sailor and myself trainer throughout his whole training process from a puppy to finally passing his Service Dog exam.
