My Story…
Hi! This is my 7th year running the Falmouth Road Race, but my first time running for Dogs for Better Lives! At Dogs for Better Lives, certified staff train and place service dogs free of charge with deaf or hard-of-hearing adults and children diagnosed with autism. I am so proud to be running for them this year! Thank you in advance!
Description
Do you know someone whose life has been impacted by hearing loss, autism, anxiety, or grief?
Dogs for Better Lives professionally trains Hearing Assistance, Autism Assistance and Facility Dogs to help people facing these challenges. We recently opened our northeast campus in Falmouth and we’re very excited to have runners in the 50th Falmouth Road Race!
The average cost to train a service dog is $51,000 but we place our dogs at zero cost to our clients. Every dollar you raise for Dogs for Better Lives will go programmatic expenses.
