Description
We are looking for puppy parents to foster our service dogs in training!
What are PPH Puppy Parents? PPH Puppy Parents are vital to the development of a service dog. Puppies with basic skills need puppy parents for to learn the ropes of household living. Even though puppies in service dog training have already spent nights and weekends with trainers, they still need to learn what life is like in a house outside of its training routine and personnel. For a few months, a PPH pup-in-training goes home with his or her PPH Puppy Parents and learns new situations, new people, and very important socialization.
