— Sue & Gunner

When you’re in a power wheelchair full-time, the little things most people take for granted—opening a door, picking up dropped keys, or retrieving your phone—can become major obstacles. I knew I needed more than just an obedient dog. I needed a true partner.

That’s exactly what Zachary and the incredible team at Nevada Canine Training Academy gave me.

My chocolate Labrador, Gunner, was trained specifically to assist with my daily needs. Today, he confidently retrieves dropped items, brings me things I need, and even opens doors, giving me a level of independence I didn’t think was possible. Watching him work with confidence and enthusiasm has truly changed my day-to-day life.

What impressed me most wasn’t just Gunner’s training—it was the genuine care and dedication Zachary and his team showed throughout the entire process. They took the time to understand my specific needs, customized Gunner’s training to fit my lifestyle, and made sure I felt comfortable and confident handling him before we went home.

It’s obvious that Nevada Canine isn’t just training dogs—they’re changing lives. The professionalism, knowledge, patience, and passion they bring to every dog and every client are second to none.

Because of Zachary and everyone at Nevada Canine Training Academy, I have a service dog that gives me greater independence, confidence, and peace of mind every single day.

If you’re looking for a team that truly cares about both you and your dog, I can’t recommend Nevada Canine Training Academy highly enough.

Thank you, Zachary and the entire Nevada Canine team, for giving me more freedom than I ever thought possible. You have made a lasting difference in my life.
