ORGANIZATION: Paws With A Cause

  • 29 people are interested
It all begins with a puppy
Raise a Puppy Change a life!

Paws With A Cause is currently looking for volunteers to raise our future Assistance Dogs. A puppy is placed in your home at 8 weeks of age and returns to PAWS for its formal Assistance Dog training at 16 months of age.

No previous training experience is necessary. Just a willingness and motivation to learn. PAWS provides weekly training classes for our Puppy Raisers and we are able to provide routine Veterinary care for the puppy at no charge to the Raiser.

Visit the PAWS website and complete the online application at BECOME A FOSTER PUPPY RAISER - PAWS WITH A CAUSE
