HABIC Therapy Dog Foundations

This 6-week class prepares you for the final evaluation required for certification as a HABIC therapy dog team. HABIC certifies therapy dog teams through completion of the Therapy Dog Foundations class AND successful completion of a final evaluation. Specialized HABIC placements, such as weekly school and healthcare placements, will require additional training. You must pass the Beginnings Test Out, either as part of a HABIC Beginnings class or on its own, to enroll in this course. To schedule your final evaluation, you'll need to submit a HABIC Medical Form completed by your veterinarian and sign the HABIC Volunteer Responsibilities agreement. Dogs must be at least 16 months old. This is payment only and does not enroll you in the class; you must confirm your enrollment with a HABIC trainer. Email Kate.J.Miller@colostate.edu. HABIC class fees are nonrefundable. Makeup sessions are not available for missed classes. Participation in HABIC classes does not guarantee certification.
