Perfect Partners is a Charitable Trust based in the Greater Auckland Region that was established to train Disability Assist Dogs for people not currently supported by existing Disability Assist Dog organisations in New Zealand. We are focusing on people with neurological conditions including autism, alzheimers, acquired brain injury, and certain psychiatric conditions but will also work with other individuals.

Questions and answers
We have had quite a few emails recently from people who are interested in having dogs trained, or who are trying to find out if a dog would be suitable for them. This has been an interesting experience as a wide variety of people have been approaching us for advice or training support.
If you are contemplating having a dog trained then please feel free to contact us to see if you would like to work with us. Finding a trainer is not only about finding an organisation that trains the kind of dog that you need, it is also about finding a trainer that you feel comfortable working with, and who uses methods that you are comfortable with.
We already have a waiting list of people who are interested in having Perfect Partners train a dog for them, or who are interested in being assessed to come under the organisation once we have Public Access sorted.
If you are even remotely thinking about having us train a dog for you then we would recommend that you contact us sooner rather than later.
If you send us an email and don't hear back from us within a week then please feel free to email us again, or to resend the same email. We had a few technical issues with our email last year, and we only found out when an email from a client was not received. We always answer emails, even if it is just to say that we are unable to help.
Thank you for all the emails we have received and the comments and photos we have received through Facebook. Please feel free to post comments on the blog, or on Facebook if you have thoughts or ideas that you would like to share.
