Hope Service Dogs, Inc

"I searched for the best all-over service dog breeder. When I found Hope Service Dogs, Inc., I stopped looking. They ensure the best match will be made. The health and happiness of the dogs and the level of dedication to their training are unmatched. I have had dozens of questions, and Victoria Warfell quickly answered with knowledge and expertise. You will be so happy and satisfied with Hope Service Dogs, Inc."

"I took my dog to Vicky & Rich before they were Hope Service Dogs, for basic training. They were awesome. I loved their method of training. They were available night or day if I had questions. Very caring people. Since then I have volunteered from time to time with the pups. These dogs are soo well taken care of. And their facility is kept super clean. And Tera is fantastic also. Love Hope Service Dogs. What an awesome group of people and dogs."

"We had the honour and pleasure of doing the 6 month started service dog programme, & I’m so thankful we did. Last year I contacted Vicki with Hope service dogs to help me find the perfect companion to help with my Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Dysautonomia, and autism. We were responded to promptly and she was so informative every single step of the way. It was incredible to see the extensive genetic testing they’ve done. I felt so relieved to know how much pride they take in ensuring genetically sound dogs. I was also able to come out and meet their dogs as well as my service dog prospect to ensure that temperament and match was good, and it was perfection. When I walked in to their facility the first time it was clear how much care and pride they have in their animals. The first, and every, time I’ve gone to their facility I was amazed by how clean it was. You can see the tenderness and love each trainer has for the pups. The animals were also always on a perfect schedule for such little puppies. Between training, feeding, pottying, and cleaning they run a tight ship! I even saw their training clip boards. Their record keeping is impeccable. Not only was I impressed by their facility their customer service was outstanding. Vicki consistently communicated with me every step of the way on training. I would get weekly photos and videos of Basil’s progress while he was with her. If I ever had questions or concern she was immediately responsive. This has even continued after his go home. They made me feel like part of a family. Not only did she have amazing communication, but she was incredibly accommodating and understanding to my needs and disabilities. I have had treatments that made me extremely vulnerable and immunocompromised. Without a seconds thought they offered to wear masks around me outside to keep me safe while we did training visits and go home. Their compassion alone has impressed me beyond words. I brought basil home he was 7 months old. He’s been extremely healthy. No digestive or health issues at all. We had lots of work to do as he’s still a puppy and it takes time to form a bond and to solidify training with a new handler. However, I can say with confidence that he’s bar none the best service dog I could have asked for or wanted. He’s healthy, confident, loving, driven (but not overly so), loyal, engaged, and 100% the best boy. At just over a year he can alert to episodes, do DPT, under, reorienting, pick up dropped items, brace, & medical recovery/response. To say that this has been an incredible and life changing experience would be an understatement. He’s saved my life and happiness in so many ways which means that so has Hope Service dogs. I feel so fortunate to be part of the HSD family. I’ve made life long friends through their organisation, and it was beyond worth it; not only for my bestie SD boy Basil, but for the experience that I’ll carry with me the rest of my life. Thank you Vicki. You’re a champion for the disability community and I adore you and your team for everything!"

"Hope Service Dogs was amazing when we needed a service dog for our daughter. Her puppy was carefully bred, lovingly raised with the highest standard of care and the right early experiences to develop resilience and intelligence, and delivered to us with public access and tasks already learned. Hope Service Dogs provided our family with an extensive online training course, weeks of hands-on in-person instruction and practice with her dog, and ongoing help and support after go-home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and our daughter’s service dog is an absolute rock star! So smart, good-natured, hardworking, and polite. Sam did a wonderful job training our daughter’s service dog and teaching our daughter to work effectively with her, and Victoria is so professional and compassionate. We would definitely choose Hope Service Dogs again."
