I'm participating in DogFest Orlando because I raised release dog, Pegasus, and the joy of helping the Canine Companions mission is greater than anything I have done in my life. Although Pegasus was released for medical reasons I know so many people a part of STEP@UCF who are continuing to raise pups for Canine Companions and I continue to watch people (& pups) grow along that incredible journey of raising a pup to help someone become more independent. 

Leading up to DogFest Orlando, I am raising money to support the Canine Companions mission. The impact these dogs have on the lives of people with disabilities is incredible. Help me get to my fundraising goal by donating online so we can get more of these amazing Canine Companions service dogs into the lives of those who need them. Every little bit will help me reach my goal. Thank you!
