Puppy Prep

Meet the good boys and good girls of Doggie Do Good, a service dog training school in Arroyo Grande, CA. Follow as the dogs go through the training basics and begin to learn the extraordinary skills that make them heroes. We also meet a family of Puppy Raisers, one of the most crucial (and under-appreciated) steps in raising service dogs.

It's one of the puppy's first field trip! The trainers take the dogs to a park full of chickens and a barnyard filled with all sorts of other animals to see which dogs have the demeanor required of them to continue development as service dogs.

A trip to the beach might be too much for one of the dogs, as she misbehaves and lacks focus throughout the day. We also meet Sammy, a dog a who has already graduated from Doggie Do Good, and see how he helps his owner, a young boy named Bryce, in everyday life.

A bus station may not sound like the most interesting field trip, but for some of the dogs, it might be the reason they fail out. A name change might confuse an otherwise reliable dog, and we meet a woman and her graduated dog who saves her from being run over by cars.

It's time for one of the dog's final exam: the local mall. Will all the new sounds and smells cause Demian to fail out at the last moment? Or have his years of training been enough to get him to graduation?
