Meet Tommy

Meet Tommy, a remarkable canine with a confident spirit and a deep bond with his human, Heidi. Their journey together highlights Tommy's incredible personality and the vital role he plays in Heidi's life as a mobility assistance service dog.

Tommy and Heidi have been working together for about two years. They trained and got certified at Ability Dogs of Arizona, a leader in owner-trained service dogs. Tommy is a highly task-trained with an impressive range of skills that bring stability and confidence to Heidi's life. His presence provides her with independence and meaningful disability support in everyday life.

Tommy's confidence is evident in everything he does, making him a reliable companion. Training sessions are particularly memorable for Tommy, especially those moments when he gets it right and earns a click and a treat. His excitement shines through, sometimes leading to a bit of drooling as he always gives his best effort.

Tommy's role model is none other than Lassie, the iconic dog known for her heroic acts. Just like Lassie, Tommy is prepared to help Heidi in any situation. One of his favorite skills, learned during serviec dog training at Ability Dogs, is running swiftly to Heidi when she falls. Tommy takes pride in being a good helper and ensuring Heidi is safe.

While Tommy's days are filled with various activities and tasks, his favorite moments are spent daydreaming about doing anything with Heidi, especially swimming. This shared love for the water strengthens their bond and adds joy to their lives.

Tommy does it all! His unwavering support, loyalty, and enthusiasm reflect the powerful impact a well-trained service dog can have, transforming lives with their companionship and love.
