OUR DOGS
Canine Care Assistance Dogs
developed the Service-Rescue Dog Program with a goal of placing abandoned
dogs from shelters, and rescue organizations, training those that were good candidates for our program, and successfully placing
them as service partners.
The Service-Rescue
concept, when applied to a Humane Society, Animal Shelter, or Rescue dog situation, has resulted in a special and
exciting combination, offering assistance to disabled individuals, while at the same time, giving previously abandoned dogs
a chance for useful lives of love and service. A second chance at life!
The Canine Care Service - Rescue Dog Program trains primarily those dogs our trainers
select from animal shelters, or rescue groups. The dogs are tested to see how well they interact with people, how motivated
they are, if they are good with other animals and if they seem eager to learn.
- All dogs are spayed or neutered before being placed.
- Clients may have their own dogs trained for service, provided that each dog meets certain criteria evaluated by a Canine
Care Trainer.
- Although our
evaluations help us choose dogs we feel will succeed in our program, there
are times when a behavior occurs in training that makes them unable to complete the program. It might be they have difficulty learning a skill for the job or have
a trait that would make it difficult for there partners to manage them.
These wonderful dogs are just that - WONDERFUL ,
but not suitable to complete our high service dog standards. For the person looking for a wonderful pet please contact
us and consider a "dog looking for a career -change."
