About this app

Make everyday service-dog practice easier to follow.

HandlerPath brings your training plan, cue reference, practice journal, and household routines into one place. See what to work on next, record what happened, and keep a clear history for each dog.

A PATH YOU CAN FOLLOW
Explore a 52-week curriculum across four phases. See the skills assigned to each week, read their prerequisites, and pause or repeat a week when your dog needs more time. Finishing a week never automatically marks a skill as mastered.

PRACTICE WITH A PURPOSE
Read plain-language briefings before trying a new skill. During program access, record each repetition as a first-cue success, success, prompted response, no response, or reset. Add context and reflection, undo a mistaken entry with a correction, and stop a session when your dog shows stress.

THE REFERENCE, RIGHT THERE
Look up cues, methods, handler basics, and 62 behavior cards. The bundled reference works offline, so it is available wherever you practice.

BRING PRACTICE HOME
Keep relief trips, settling, greetings, door waits, and other household routines together. Record what happened before, during, and after a behavior so you can discuss patterns with your trainer.

A RECORD THAT BELONGS TO YOU
Review sessions, skill assessments, and milestone evidence. Program access includes prepared PDF and CSV reports. A complete JSON export of your records stays available on the free plan.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your training records and stored photos stay in an encrypted database on your device. Use the optional biometric app lock for another layer of privacy. Core training and reference features work offline; no account is required. Export your records to keep your own backup.

START WITH TWO WEEKS
Your first 14 days include program features. After the trial, the free plan keeps one dog profile, the cue and behavior references, manual session logging, the first four weeks, and JSON export. Repetition logging, milestone evidence, prepared reports, additional dogs, and later training weeks require program access.

HandlerPath supports practice and record keeping. It does not certify a service dog or replace a qualified trainer or veterinary care. Read the safety guidance and work at your dog's pace.

Small steps. A clearer record. A path you can keep following.
