We recognise the importance of socialising your dog and the incredible benefits it offers. However, we also understand the challenges that come with it. That's why we've created a program to assist you.

🐾 DSKS K9 Services – Dog Socialising Sessions

Calm, One-on-One Socialising in a Home Environment

Not all dogs are ready for chaotic daycares or big groups — and that’s okay.

At DSKS K9 Services, we offer gentle, structured socialising sessions with our calm and friendly resident helper dog, Bear. These sessions are designed to help your dog:
✅ Build confidence
✅ Learn safe, polite manners
✅ Gain positive dog-to-dog experiences
✅ Progress at their own pace in a calm, home-based setting

🐶 Who It’s For

Shy or anxious dogs who struggle in group settings
Puppies needing safe early social exposure
Dogs who’ve had negative past experiences
Owners wanting calm, personalised support

How We Raise Our Helper Dogs
Our helper dogs, like Bear, are raised in a calm, structured home environment with a focus on gentle exposure, social manners, and everyday life skills. They’ve been carefully socialised with a wide variety of dogs, people, and situations from a young age. We’ve trained them ourselves using positive, consistent methods to be calm, respectful, and reliable — making them the perfect role models for dogs who need safe, confidence-building social experiences
