Homeschool Highschool Podcast Ep 79: Raising Service Dogs for Transcript and Character
Get sparkle on the transcript and build some good life skills with service dog training!
Most of us homeschool parents have a real juggling act trying to help our teens:
- Develop a powerful, useful transcript
- Develop a sense of character that helps them to become the people God created them to be
Your teens can build transcript AND character by raising service dogs! Some things that colleges are looking for include:
- Service hours
- Commitment
- Dedication to a cause
When your family volunteers to raise a service puppy, that’s exactly what your teen will experience:
Service hours- log a reasonable number each week. This should be in direct care and training.
Commitment- it is a commitment! 24/7 this important puppy will be with your family. Allow your teen to participate in all aspects of his development and training
Dedication to a cause. This includes:
- Time
- Effort
- Personality growth
- Money
