Canine Guardians Assistance Dogs is looking for volunteers to raise puppy raisers for their program. CGAD is a nonprofit in Napa CA who trains service dogs for veterans, individuals with physical disabilities, and children with diabetes.
Puppy raisers take a puppy into their home for a year and socialize them by taking to:
stores
work
school
restaurants
doctor appointments, etc.
Please Note! Puppy raisers are also obligated to attend training classes twice a month.

Mission Statement
What We Do: We train service dogs to help wounded veterans, veterans with PTSD, people with physical disabilities, children with cancer, diabetics and children with reading difficulties. Who We Are: It takes two years to train a service dog starting at the age of three days old. When the puppy is about eight weeks old it will leave our facility and live with Puppy Parents for about a year. During this time the Puppy Parent will socialize the dog by taking it out in public everywhere they go and is required to attend biweekly training classes. After being with a Puppy Parent for a year the puppy will come back to us for intense training before being placed with it's partner.
