Smart Pups - Assistance Dogs for Special Needs Children Inc.
Our goal is to improve the quality of life of children living with autism or seizure related syndromes by training our Assistance Dogs in ‘task specific’ skills.
Smart Pups Assistance Dogs are specially trained to help children who have any disability falling within the Autism Spectrum. These dogs are trained to disrupt behaviour outside of the child's set behavourial pattern. In addition, Autism Assistance dogs can be trained to track the child should he or she wander away. Regardless of what advanced skills Autism Assistance Dogs might be trained to do, their primary purpose is to provide a best friend, confidant and playmate for a child who almost always has few friends.
