GET A Service Dog
How To Obtain A Service Dog From Buckaroos 360 Dog Care
Service dogs are typically not adopted as they are specially trained canine companions. A service dog will be trained for the individual they are going to be helping live as normal a life as possible every day. Service dogs are extensively trained and require a large commitment from both the new handler who needs the assistance and the trainer. If you are interested in a service dog from Buckaroos, please contact us with questions. We would love to help you find the perfect service dog!
A service dog is a specially trained dog that helps a person with activities of daily living. Some dogs are retrievers for wheelchair-bound people, some dogs are for the hearing and visually impaired, and others aid children with autism. Service dogs are required to perform in public settings without fail, so the hours involved in training are excessive. Buckaroos evaluates rescue dogs for their service dog potential.

At Buckaroos, if we hear of a dog needing a home, we act. All dogs are loved and cared for as our own until we are able to re-home them in the perfect situation. Rescue dogs are not simply “free” dogs. These dogs often come with a host of health issues from improper care and neglect. They also can have genetic issues and major medical issues that require veterinary attention. Grooming and flea/tick treatments are necessary to improve the coat of rescue dogs for optimum health and hygiene.
Since we are dog trainers, all rescue dogs receive an evaluation and basic training before being placed available for adoption. We help other rescue organizations as well by offering free or low-cost training, grooming, boarding, and evaluations. Buckaroos aims to have no dog become a rescue dog if at all possible. We can work with families to help correct behavior issues so the dogs can remain in their homes.
