Volunteers Make a Difference
The service and facility dogs we train aren’t just the ears, hands and legs of their human partners; they’re also their best friends. Canine Companions service dogs open new opportunities and spread incredible joy. We unite people with dogs in a powerful program that leads to greater independence and confidence. Our volunteer puppy raisers make this possible.

Other
Ways
to Get
Involved
Canine Companions does have a wait list to receive a service dog. Everyone who applies to receive a service dog or to become a volunteer puppy raiser goes through an application process. We can’t guarantee the puppy you raise will be placed with a veteran or in your local community. Not all puppies make it as service or facility dogs, but many go on to work in other roles such as therapy dogs.
