| About Us |
| We begin training the pups at a very young age and they are very willing and eager students. |
| In a very short time they begin to learn such things as turning light switches on and off. |
The program founders began this program in 2002. They formed a partnership between the Assistance Service Dog Educational Center and the Woodlake Union High School District. It sharpens the focus of students finding their purpose in life helping in a canine training program. The dogs they train enrich the lives of people dealing with the daily challenges of life resulting from disabilities. Student trainers are selected on the basis of their written applications and a subsequent oral interview that helps assure that the successful candidates have the necessary character, attributes and resilience to participate in the program. Each class is a two year commitment on the part of the kids selected for the program. Every school year one team of eight students and dogs graduate and then the dogs go on to be placed with clients with special needs. This is a nonprofit organization funded through the generous support of the community, clubs, fund raising events and grants. |
| We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization |
