How does Custom Canine Unlimited evaluate a dog’s suitability for service work?

Custom Canine Unlimited evaluates a dog’s suitability for service work primarily through temperament assessments and behavior evaluations. This approach is essential because service dogs need to exhibit specific characteristics, such as calmness, focus, and an ability to handle various situations. The temperament assessments help in identifying whether a dog has the stable emotional and psychological makeup necessary for working in a service capacity, while behavior evaluations can determine how the dog reacts in different environments and scenarios that they might encounter while performing their duties. This rigorous evaluation process ensures that only dogs with the right temperament and skill set are selected for training as service animals, ultimately leading to successful partnerships with their human counterparts.
