Things to keep in mind for the Service Dog Training Program: Pawsitism Inc., in conjunction with RUFF Academy, will require the puppy to be at the RUFF Academy Main facility 4 days a week, 8 hours a day minimum and will ask the puppy be in attendance for events, field trips and fundraising events throughout the 18 months. RUFF Academy will also have Service Dog School on Wednesday evenings each week. You will be required to attend these classes so you know what to work on to help with the puppy’s training.
