At Canine Companions for Independence,

our pups have a special destiny -

to assist a person with a disability

in leading a more

fulfilling and independent life.

 

The Goal

Puppy Raisers help CCI pups achieve their full potential

by providing lots of love, leadership, and socialization. 

In order to graduate, a CCI dog needs to be calm,

confident, adaptable, and to enjoy being with and

working with humans as a team.
