For 10 years now, DOGWISH has trained Service Dogs specifically trained to detect abnormal brainwave and body function activity and corresponding behaviors, up to 6 six hours before actual seizure experiences, or other abnormal neurological disruptions occur. We then have placed these dogs with individuals who have epilepsy or other seizure disorders.

As Dog Wish trainers put their dogs through conditioning that enhances their abilities as seizure detection dogs, the animals begin to respond to their handler’s brainwaves and body smells, detecting abnormalities and responding by alerting the handler. This gives the individual time to seek medical attention and even possibly resolve the situation before it occurs. Many of our clients actually claim that the number and severity of seizure incidences have greatly diminished and, in some cases, resolved since receiving and handling our dogs. Nearly all of them have been able reduce and even eliminate the use of medications.

How the Dog Works

  • It is a fact that 75 to80 percent of the information dogs assimilate, they receive through their nose.
  •  The nose is by far their primary source of understanding. Dogs can smell body smells with far greater accuracy than we are capable.
  • When a dog smells your scent, they are actually smelling a complete, comprehensive, battery of information about you and your personality.  This supplies them with personal information about you that is significant and incredible.
  • Their nose is a very credible tool that connects them with you.
  • A dog uses their eyes as radar, and their nose for all the particulars.  You could say that dogs seen through their nose, because they use their nose like a human uses our eyes.
  • Dogs can be up to 100 times as sensitive to the electro-magnetic energy in and around us as we are.
  • A dog has the ability to become sensitive to the energy your brain is creating up to great distances from you.
  • Because dogs operate from a “right-brained” perspective, dogs respond to the energy you produce as a primary source of understanding.

Who May Benefit:

  • People who experience Grand Mal seizures
  • People who experience seizures due to illness
  • People who experience seizures due to brain/head injuries

What the Dog Can Accomplish:

  • Save lives
  • Prevent seizures
  • Keep handlers from fall or suffer other accident or injury during a seizure
  • Ease burdens on caregivers/families
  • Increase handler’s confidence and independence

Why a Dog Wish Dog is the Best Choice

At Dog Wish we modify the thought process, and behavior in each dog we train, teaching them:

  • To learn how to stop, focus, receive instruction, and follow our instruction
  • To learn new behaviors
  • To transfer patterns of unacceptable behaviors to new acceptable behaviors
  • To literally transform their behaviors

In order to be effective and successful we work with each dog to:

  • enhance their self-image and role in their pack or family,
  • raise their level of intelligence and individual maturity,
  • in order to become more functional and compliance,
  • and become a more positive part of the relationships with their human counterparts that they share and experience.

In order to be capable of responding positively in training, each dog must learn how to:

  • Relax and then focus.
  • Stimulate and use their brain.
  • Expand its ability to receive understand and respond appropriately to our instruction.
  • Increase their ability to use their conscious mind to respond voluntarily to our conditioning.

Their success in doing this is achieved directly as a result of the conditioning exercises we teach them as we literally:

  • Stimulate the conscious and subconscious mind of each dog,
  • Forcing that mind to respond directly to our training,
  • Intensely motivating and focusing each response with positive rewards, which produce mental clarity and further stimulation,
  • And give the dog a further capability to progress.

As a result of our training these dogs have learned to expand their brain’s potential:

  • to focus, receive, understand, follow, and perform tasks based on verbal communication, electro-magnetic stimulus, and brain wave inductive energy.
  • Develop the ability to communicate dynamically on several levels using several dimensions of communication.
  • Develop the ability to use their own thoughts to do intelligent complex problem solving.

Our Accomplishments:

We used hundreds of dog/client teams and 10+ years of work to develop a strategic system of behavior that we used to break into, focus, modify, and pattern the subconscious and natural responsiveness in the dogs we trained, and the response is phenomenal.  

  • Through my research I inductively evaluated the processes of the brain, the related glands and the Neuro/muscular system affected in the body by the brain.  I used my knowledge to produce an understandable, comprehensive model.  I then applied this model to the development of a working psychology, showing how the related thought process, the learning process, the decision-making process, and the performance process, all working together, used to train dogs for perfect performance.  Through that process, we have been able to develop a model to understand the actual specific biological processes used by all animals for their minds and bodies to receive, process, and create behavior.  We have used this knowledge to teach our dogs to understand and work with the most severe physical and mental problems. 

We developed a program for training that launched us into the work of training canines for the disabled community with great success.  The knowledge we have gained which we used to test, expand, and apply everday with our training, giving us a cutting edge maximizes our rate of successful placements.

The Process

  1. We train each Dog Wish Service Dog to teach them to stop and relax physically, and emotionally.
  2. This prepares the K9 to focus, receive, and respond to commands in a proper mental/emotional state of mind.  We call this “going into training mode”.
  3. It produces a modified state of consciousness in the mind of the K9 which makes them much more balanced, sensitive, focused, and trainable.
  4. It has greatly enhanced our training program with all dogs we train.

The strategy we use for training teaches the K9 to become sensitive to the movements, smells, and electro-magnetic energies of the handler, and at the same time teaches the handler to project and focus their thoughts and energies into the dog.

  • As each recipient would learn and use the techniques I prescribed for handling their dogs, the effect of those exercises they used to maintain the training in their dog also appeared to have had the effect of stabilizing the workings of their own mind.
  • ·
  • By working with a K9 whose brainwave (consciousness) and consequently body responses had been altered and controlled by the conditioning they had received in order to go into what we call “training mode”, the dogs actually communicated with the handlers through their controlled behavior, and helped the handlers to do the same, which has had the affect of promoting balance and stability in their brain functions.

I have now been able to use this conditioning with my K9s to work with a wide spectrum of mental/emotional disorders, disabilities, and developmental disabilities in both children and adults with tremendous success, because through the conditioning experience, what the client actually learns is how to work with and control their own mentality and body functioning.  Our K9s can actually

  • Smell the difference between normal and abnormal body smells
  • Feel the abnormal electro-magnetic energy changes as the brain begins to send  abnormal signals which the body projects,
  • See the difference between normal and abnormal muscular-neural movement,
  • Hear the difference in normal and abnormal body functions (breathing, etc.),

and respond with understanding and instant clarity to what is happening with the afflicted person.

Doctor David Kelso, PHD

During this time, while we were doing research on many other persons with seizures, we were contacted by the late Doctor David Kelso, a National leading Medical Administrator, and Vice President of the American Red Cross.  Dave was a National Director of the FEMA Search and Rescue work in northwest America.  It was after 9-11,  at the time when FEMA cut their support for the Nation’s Disaster program.  He needed a new dog he had purchased, to be trained for Search and Rescue.  He had worked with 6 leading facilities throughout America in the past, and was referred to us by handlers at 9-11.  We trained his dog, Casper, and he became the world’s first Certified Akita for Search and Rescue work.  Dave took him home, and the dog quickly gained a reputation for doing searches that no other search dog was capable of doing.  Dave called and spoke with to find out why.

After explaining how we were able to train our dogs to tune into electro-magnetic energies from the people the dogs were trained to find, Dr. Kelso flew out and spent a week training dogs with us.  Dave then started coming out and working with us monthly, and had us train three other certified K9s for him, which he then used for a year, doing Search and Rescue and Police Dog work.  Based on the performance of the dogs we had trained, he confirmed our findings,  and coined the phrase, “bainwave sensitive”, to describe Dog Wish Service Dogs.

The Service Dogs Dr. Kelso received from Dog Wish did what he considered amazing things that other search dogs could not do.  His dogs found a company caught in a blizzard, 8 miles into the mountains, at 3am, in -30 degree weather, when no other dogs were able to even find their scent trail.  Dave’s dogs went right to them.  Along with other things, they also found a home with 4 children who were kidnapped from different States, just by walking within three blocks of them.  Dave believed that what we did through our training gave them the incredible edge they needed to do these things.

What we didn’t know was that Dave suffered from Diabetic seizures, and the dogs we trained for him were indicating his seizures, and saved his life numerous times.  After a year of work with 4 of our dogs Dr. Kelso wrote:

  • “Our dogs are trained to respond to the electromagnetic energies being projected from the brain, and specific smells being created by the bodies of their handler. We have been able to document that the handlers of our Service Dogs who use to have “melt downs” every other or every third day, which would last from 1 to 4 hours before the child could resume normal activities, now had them once a week, and often the problem would last for 10 to 20 minutes, be much less severe, and much more controllable.  This is because the dog has had their mentality and metabolism altered, and counter balances the abnormal emotional responsiveness in their handler.  In stores and restaurants, schools, etc., the affected person who was before uncontrollable or questionable, now will sit or stay with their dog, and will respond to discipline and instruction much better, because of the dog.  This can also be true of recipients who have Seizure or like disorders.  Besides being able to detect and pre-alert to these conditions, the affect our dogs have on these people reducing and stopping these activities, is amazing.”  The late Dr. David Kelso, PHD, College Professor, Director of Several Hospital Departments of Neuro Surgery, and Mental Health Facilities.  Board of Directors for The Dog Wish, Inc.

Our Seizure Alert K9 program has become a tremendous success.

In 2006 dogs we trained were honored by the:

Delta Society – Therapy dog of the Year for 2006

American Red Cross – Search & Rescue K9 of the Year

the Journal of Longevity  -“Humanitarian of the Year” (for our work with the Disabled Community in America)

Make-A-Wish Foundation Vender of the Year 2009.

Besides the numerous other Awards we have been honored with, in 2012 we were honored by an Interstate Public School contest, as AMERICA’S TOP CHARITY!

We believe that our training is a life and death concern for both the dogs we train, and their owners and potential handlers.  We deal with increasing the quality of life for everyone we come in contact with.  We know that if we don’t do the job, the consequences will be devastating.  We also believe that working with persons afflicted with disabilities in our #1 concern, as this community has the greatest need for trained dogs who can help empower them to cope with, function, and live with a better quality of life.  This is especially true for those afflicted with seizures, and like conditions.
