K9

Veteran Owned and Operated
Training & Behavioral Specialists

At Grace and Integrity K9, we are dedicated to transforming lives through the power of  trained service dogs. Our mission is to provide training for individuals with disabilities the independence, support, and companionship they deserve.  We ensure our students, and their dogs are the perfect type, age, size they will need based on their unique needs.

 

Since our founding, we have been committed to not only training service dog teams but also building a community of support, education, and advocacy for the people we serve. Our training program caters to a variety of needs, ensuring that each dog is trained to meet the unique challenges faced by their handler. The handler brings his or her own dog through our training program after our team has performed an assessment on the dog to make sure the animal is an ideal candidate for service work. Unfortunately, not all dogs can be service dogs. 

 

Service dogs are more than just companions - they're partners in health and wellness, offering critical support in navigating daily challenges and helping individuals to fully participate in everyday life. We not only train these incredible dogs but also work within the community to raise awareness about their importance. Through educational programs and outreach, we are committed to showing how service dogs can enhance lives in profound ways. 

​

Whether you are here to apply for service dog training, volunteer your time, make a donation, or simply learn more about our mission, we welcome you with open arms. Together, we can create a world where every individual has the opportunity to lead a fulfilling and independent life with the help of a loving, dedicated service dog.

 

Thank you for visiting our website. We invite you to explore our program, read inspiring stories from our community, and discover how you can get involved. Your support makes our work possible, and we are grateful for every contribution, no matter how big or small.

 

Welcome to the G and I K9 family!
