Mobility Service Dogs - West Coast Project

Mobility Service Dogs - West Coast Project Mobility Service Dogs-West Coast Project advances FUNctional independence for people with disabilities through service dogs, education, and empowerment.

VISION
Our vision is for the mobility-impaired community to live full, vibrant lives and achieve FUNctional independence with or without a canine companion's assistance. We seek to create a user-friendly pathway for all people with mobility challenges.

_______________

CORE VALUES
MSD-WCP values independence, reliability, bond-based puppy rearing, demonstrating empathy, hosting meetups to assist with all mobility needs, and connecting humans to canines. We offer support to embrace your best living.

_______________

GOALS
We provide wellness training, education, and support to mobility-impaired individuals to help them navigate and overcome the many obstacles they encounter daily. In addition, MSD-WCP plays a key role in the community by educating what a service dog team is.

_______________

OUR DOGS
MSD-WCP raises, trains, and matches poodles with mobility-impaired individuals. We rehome poodles donated from breeders and rescue agencies whose priorities are their dogs' health, temperament, and working ability. Only a remarkable canine can become a service dog. In training, we only use loving positive reinforcement in socializing, playing, training, handling, doggie-fun, educating, and tasking our dogs! As a result, they love learning and working; happy dogs make the best service dogs!

_______________

OUR EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS
In our educational programs, PAWS that Empower, Reading Circles, and WAG, we introduce the importance of Equality for All. Our goal is to give each person knowledge and confidence to open discussions regarding perceived differences, creating conversations stepping forward. Additionally, MSD-WCP supports the educational process in schools, businesses, and the community as we teach vital living skills.

Meet Janie Lynn Heinrich and her devoted partner, Beckett, a true embodiment of what “FUNctional independence” can look like. In 2010, a life changing accident led Janie to navigate the world differently. With Phoebe, her first service Poodle, she rediscovered mobility. When barriers blocked her from getting a new service dog, she didn’t step back, she founded MobilityDog in 2018 to ensure nobody else would face the same hurdle.

Today, MobilityDog has matched over 40 service dog teams, built a community, and delivers workshops like PAWS that Empower and WAG Workplace Inclusion, all fueled by empathy, inclusion, and empowerment.

With Beckett by her side, Janie isn’t just living… she’s thriving. Let’s celebrate , boundless resilience, and the beautiful partnership between humans and their service dogs. 🐩💪✨

Every dog we train is selected with love and raised with puppy culture principles to ensure confidence, joy, and readiness for service. Together, our handlers and dogs form bonds that truly become magic after 18–24 months of training.
