Still thinking about last Saturday’s Facility Dog Seminar. 🥰🐾

Once a year, we gather with our Facility Dogs and their handlers to learn, train, and grow together. We were truly impressed by the dedication of the facilities and handlers—and the incredible work already happening within these partnerships. We’re excited to see these teams continue to grow and make an impact throughout the year. 💙

Thinking about a dog working in your facility? Don't hesitate to reach out!

Some "Rey"s of sunshine are on the way. ☀️🌻

We’re so excited to share that our breeding program is officially relaunching. With our recent accreditation, we now have access to a wider network and resources to thoughtfully grow this program. Rey’s puppies are due at the end of the month, and we’re beyond excited to welcome the next generation of future service dogs.

This is where so many life-changing journeys begin, and we’re grateful to share this moment with you.

Stay tuned for more updates soon! 👀🎉

As 2025 comes to a close, we’re feeling incredibly grateful.

This year brought growth, milestones, and life-changing work — all because of you. 🐾

As we look ahead, your end-of-year gift helps us train more service dogs like these, expand our programs, and continue changing lives on both ends of the leash.

Thank you for being part of this mission.
