Coming Soon:

The Alliance at Sea Dog Animal Training

​

We’re excited to share that SDAT is building The Alliance at Sea Dog Animal Training, which will soon become our nonprofit initiative built on our mission of saving lives with training.

Through The Alliance, we will:

• Keep pets in their homes by offering accessible training and family support.

• Provide for those not yet in homes — caring for SDAT’s resident rescues with food, shelter, veterinary care, and training until they find their forever families.

• Support rescue organizations by helping finance the space needed to reserve rescue spots and offer discounted rates for rescues that rely on SDAT.

​

Stay tuned for more details as we launch this exciting initiative.
