Doggie Distraction Class 🐾

Every Wednesday, we hold dog distraction classes at our Gilles Plains campus or in various parks.

Our exceptional puppy trainers lead engaging exercises focused on maintaining our trainee dogs' attention, ensuring they navigate away from distractions like toys, people, and other dogs. These sessions are crucial for preparing the pups for their eventual roles as guide or assistance dogs.

We're always looking for more volunteers! If you enjoy spending time with fellow dog enthusiasts, training dogs, and being part of a meaningful cause, click the link to learn more >> bit.ly/3hmWCky ... See MoreSee Less
