Dogs for Better Lives (formerly known as Dogs for the Deaf) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located in Central Point, Oregon. We are looking for volunteers to be part of our Assistance Dog Application Interview Program.
Since 1977, Dogs for the Deaf dba Dogs for Better Lives has been rescuing dogs from shelters, professionally training them to become Assistance dogs and placing them with qualified clients with hearing loss throughout the United States. By providing sound awareness and companionship, these dogs greatly increase freedom and independence and also improve employability. We continue to maintain a life-long commitment to all dogs we rescue and all people we serve.
We are attempting to grow our nationwide network of Volunteers that assist with the in-home interview portion of our application process. Please help us in our mission by expanding our team of volunteers around the country. It is vitally important for us to gather extensive, detailed information on the home environment and particular needs of each applicant so that we can match them with an Assistance dog that best suits their specific situation and lifestyle.
If you are interested in becoming a Volunteer, please contact us for more information (800) 990-3647 or email: info@dogsforbetterlives.org
