“Our Mission is to raise, train and place vastly skilled assistance dogs to enrich lives in our community through specialized programs”

National Assistance Dogs, Inc raises, trains and places assistance dogs to people in need including civilians, veterans, first responders, and government agencies.  Assistance dogs not only provide a specific service to their handlers, but also greatly enhance the quality of their handlers’ lives from a sense of freedom and independence.

National Assistance dogs desires to engage our community to help meet the needs of the people we serve. With the help of volunteer puppy raisers we are able to reduce the wait time for people who desire service dogs. We only use positive training methods by using treats and verbal praise. We never force our dogs into situations where they are uncomfortable, instead we promote trust through understanding canine behavior and positive training methods
