ICAN service dogs can help children and adults with disabilities by:
Retrieving dropped or out-of-reach items
Opening and closing doors and cabinets
Turning light switches on and off
Moving clothes from the dryer to a basket
Interrupting a nightmare for a veteran with PTSD
Connecting the client with the people and world around them
Applying deep pressure to comfort a child with autism
And more
During our service dog training, we guide each puppy toward the best work for their unique personality, temperament, and strengths.
This lets us match our clients with the perfect service dog for their situation and needs.
We strive to be as transparent as possible with our clients and their families. Although it costs $25,000 to train one dog, ICAN only charges $2,500 (10 percent of that cost) for a service dog. This cost includes serving the client and dog during its time in service, which averages eight to 10 years.
