Our lowest need based individual training rate is $40 an hour, plus a travel fee if outside of West Seattle. Your rate may be more than $40 an hour depending on your income level. For more information on our rates please see the Service Dog Rates page. Before we start training we need to know if you are financially prepared to spend anywhere from $800 to $2000 within the next 6 months on training your dog? If not, please do not contact us about individual training. (required)

We do NOT have scholarships or grants available at this time. Please do not contact us about other discounts, there are NONE available. If you would still like to train with The Service Dog Academy but do not currently have the funds there is an Assistive Technology Loan available from the Washington Access Fund. They help disabled individuals with bad credit secure extremely low interest loans to help them pay for services/items to improve their life functions. Under their program Service Dog Training qualifies as an assistive technology. Click on the green link above or the logo below to be taken to their site.

About

The Service Dog Academy is a PET and service dog training school located in the West Seattle neighborhood of Seattle, WA. We train your dog using a combination of both private in home training sessions as well as obedience classes for both adult and puppy dogs. We use humane and positive training methods to quickly address your dogs behavioral problems (including anxiety, aggression, potty training, biting, jumping, stealing, separation anxiety and barking). When you train your pet dog with us 100% of the profits go towards supporting the low cost service dog training program. Training with the Service Dog Academy is a great way to "pay it forward" while getting something in return. We are pleased to announce that in July we will start serving the Beacon Hill area with adult obedience dog training classes.
