Where have Service Dogs trained by Cloverfield Specialist Trainers Come From?

Maritime Specialty Service Dogs Society does not have a Service Dog breeding program.  In a traditional, successful "bred-for-purpose" breeding program, it is normal for over 50% of the dogs produced not to be ultimately suited as Service Dogs.  We therefore prefer to source our dogs from rescues and from responsible breeders of purebred dogs who generously donate them to our program.

Many breeders have been very generous in donating their dogs to our program.  We are delighted to thank them here.
