Canine Companions

Canine Companions is a non-profit organization that enhances the lives of people with disabilities by providing highly trained assistance dogs and ongoing support to ensure quality partnerships.

The assistance dogs we breed, raise and train aren’t just the ears, hands and legs of their human partners. They’re also goodwill ambassadors and often, their best friends. They open up new opportunities and new possibilities, and spread incredible joy. We unite people with dogs in a powerful program that leads to greater independence and confidence.

It's your generous donation that allows us to offer expertly trained assistance dogs and a lifetime of support to people with disabilities at absolutely no charge to the recipient. We couldn’t do it without you — please consider making a donation with your race registration.
