Assistance Dog Training for Mental Health & Autism Support

Trusted Paws UK provides structured, task-focused training programmes for adults with diagnosed mental health conditions or autism. We help you train your dog to provide real, everyday support — from public access behaviour to task-specific response work.

Who We Work With:

• Adults (18+) with a formal diagnosis of PTSD, ADHD, autism, or related conditions

• Based within ~2 hours of London

• Able to provide supporting documentation for their condition and training suitability

What We Offer:

• Personalised training plans tailored to your dog and your needs

• Five clear stages of training — covering focus, public access, and assistance tasks

• Combination of online and in-person sessions for flexibility

• Ongoing progress tracking and trainer support throughout the programme

All training is aligned with Assistance Dogs International (ADI) standards and the Equality Act 2010.

We don’t offer generic obedience — we help you build a reliable, working relationship with your dog, grounded in trust and everyday functionality.
