Contact Us Today to Schedule Your Dogs Evaluation and Eligibility
Every dog is evaluated before acceptance into the program to help determine temperament, behavior and suitability for service work.
**Need more time?**
Advanced training packages, additional task training and continued public-access training are also available.
🐾 **IMPORTANT:** Service dogs aren't made by a vest or certificate. They're made through training, reliability, appropriate public behavior and individually trained work or tasks.
Completion of 12 weeks does not guarantee that every dog will be ready to graduate. Dogs progress at different rates, and our priority is developing **safe, reliable and confident service-dog teams.**

Train Your Dog with Cornerstone Companions
Puppy Training
Our puppy training program is designed to help your new furry friend learn the basic commands and socialization skills they need to thrive. We use positive reinforcement techniques that make training fun and rewarding for your puppy.
Obedience Training
Our obedience training program is perfect for dogs of all ages and breeds. We'll work with you and your dog to teach them basic obedience commands like sit, stay, and come. Our training methods are effective and gentle, so your dog will learn quickly without any stress or frustration.
Behavioral Training
If your dog is struggling with behavioral issues like aggression, anxiety, or fear, our behavioral training program can help. We'll work with you and your dog to identify the underlying cause of their behavior and develop a plan to address it. Our goal is to help your dog feel happy and confident in any situation.
Private Training
If you're looking for one-on-one training for your dog, our private training sessions are perfect for you. We'll work with you and your dog to address any specific training needs you have. Whether you're dealing with a difficult behavior or just want to improve your dog's obedience, we can help!
Group Classes
Our group classes are a fun and social way to train your dog. We offer classes for all levels, from puppy training to advanced obedience. You'll get to meet other dog owners and learn from our experienced trainers. Plus, your dog will get the benefit of socialization with other dogs.
Our Mission: Service Dogs Without the Financial Barrier "I think that everyone deserves the companionship, independence and freedom one of these loving dogs can provide. It should never depend on your financial situation". -Britany Morano, Founder Cornerstone Companions Service Dogs
Cornerstone Companions Service Dogs is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to helping individuals with disabilities gain greater independence through highly trained service dogs.
Fully Trained Service Dogs
Whenever sufficient donations, grants, and sponsorship funding are available, eligible fully trained service dogs may be provided at no cost to the recipient. Availability of no-cost placements is dependent upon charitable funding and is not guaranteed.
Owner-Trained Service Dog Programs & Other Dog Training
Owner-trained service dog instruction, private training, behavior training, obedience training, boarding and other training services are fee-based services and are not provided through our donor-funded service dog placement program.
Fees collected for these services are separate from charitable assistance for fully trained service dog placements.
Your Support Makes Free Placements Possible
Every donation and sponsorship helps us work toward removing the financial barrier between a person with a disability and the fully trained service dog who could change their life.
For many individuals our dogs are the cornerstone to their freedom
Their independence is based on these Companions.
Ephesians 2:20 (NIV): “Built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.”
Help Our Cause
Your generous support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and rescue more dogs so we can place more dogs in the hands of those that need them. Please consider making a tax deductible donation today, thank you for blessing us so that we can continue to bless others!
