Assistance Dog Programme Application

Tell us about your dog and your needs

Our owner-trained assistance dog programme is designed for handlers who want to train their own assistance dog. This application helps us understand your needs, your dog's temperament and experience, and whether our programme is the right fit. Fill in as much detail as you can - the more we know, the better we can support you.
