Escalator Training for Service Dogs

Escalator Training for Service Dogs: Riding escalators can be dangerous for service dogs—and that’s exactly why almost no one shows how to teach it. But avoiding the topic doesn’t make our dogs safer.

In this week’s video, I’m breaking down the exact prep work, safety protocols, and step-by-step training I use to make escalator training safe, thoughtful, and confidence-building.

Whether you ever plan to ride an escalator or not, the foundation skills and approach in this video will make you a better trainer for your dog (and give you some exercises for building confidence!).
