Big hearts and willing spirits are the hallmarks of the canine half of our working teams. The training is long and sometimes arduous, but the dogs you will meet below seem to thrive on the responsibilities of being part of a team.
Some dogs offer an ear for their partners; some alert for a variety of conditions that allows for a more independent life. Children with autism respond in miraculous ways when partnered with a canine companion.
