Changing Lives, Four Paws at a Time

Canines for Service Inc.

Canines For Veterans –a national program that teaches Veterans reintegrating into civilian life how to train service dogs for qualifying Veterans with service-connected disabilities.
Canines For Therapy – trains owners and their dogs to provide animal-assisted visitations in hospitals, nursing homes, schools, group homes and treatment facilities.
