At Domino Service Dogs (DSD), we believe disability should never mean isolation. We empower people with disabilities to train their own service dogs through a structured, ethical, evidence-based 24-month program that builds independence, restores dignity, and strengthens families.
This work began with Caitlin Tyra Brady — a disability advocate whose life shaped our mission. Her legacy continues through every team we serve.
The cost to support one team through DSD’s full two-year service dog training program is $25,000.
That investment covers:
- Professional instruction and curriculum
- Task training and public access coaching
- Structured community outings
- Service animal law education
- Training materials and evaluations
- Insurance and program infrastructure
- Alumni and follow-up support
We work to remove financial barriers so families are not forced to choose between disability supports and basic living expenses.
When you give, you fund mobility, medical alert support, emotional regulation, public access, safety, confidence, and community participation.
One trained team changes more than one life. A child re-enters school. A veteran regains access to public spaces. A senior remains safely housed. A parent shops independently. That is the Domino Effect.

Your investment supports direct programming and the infrastructure required to responsibly train service dog teams over two years.
Because disability should not mean exclusion. Because dignity should not depend on income. Because $25,000 over two years can change a lifetime.
