We are less than 3 weeks away from Giving Tuesday, an annual day of giving, and a crucial part of CPL’s fundraising efforts. This year, we are introducing Dollars for Dogs, a challenge that allows our supporters to help get their favorite kennel dog to the top of the leaderboard through their donations.

Each dollar brings our dogs one step closer to changing someone’s life through independence, companionship, and support. Whether you give $5 or $50, every gift helps fund their training, care, and future partnership with someone in need. To participate, add the kennel dog’s name of your choosing to the message when giving online or add a note if you are sending a check.

Donate today and make a note of which kennel dog you’d like to see get to the top — and help us reach our goal of supporting more teams through the incredible power of service and companion dogs! Stay tuned to CPL’s social media accounts for updated leaderboard standings! You can donate early here: https://bit.ly/cplgt25

November is Epilepsy Awareness Month! Seizure alert dogs can support individuals living with epilepsy by alerting them up to an hour before an oncoming seizure, allowing them to find a safe place to sit or lay down, often avoiding falls and injury. Knowing that their dog will warn them of an oncoming seizure allows our clients to live more independent, fear-free lives.

Today some of our staff went to Kitchen Kettle Village for a training trip with some of our dogs in training – Dazey, Maui, GeGe, Ellen, Samwise, Jody, Sheba, and Spike. The dogs practiced navigating in smaller shops, working around distracting smells, and practiced their skills in a busy environment. This was a great opportunity for both our staff and dogs!
