I'm participating in DogFest DFW because I love dogs and know the joy they bring to our lives each and every day. I also believe in Canine Companions and their mission to provide expertly trained service dogs to adults, children and veterans with disabilities FREE of charge.

Leading up to DogFest DFW, 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 donation will help me reach my goal.

16th puppy Watts has changed his focus and will be training to be an Early Alert Canine helping a person/child with diabetes. He starts this journey in June,  17^th puppy Gator V went to professional training in November 2025, Last month when I got his report, it showed that he has changed subjects and will be studying to assist a veteran.  He will make a big difference in the life of a person who served to keep our country safe.  18^th puppy Lichen and 19^th puppy Banyan are part of the Carswell Federal Prison program where the inmates teach commands.  Every other month, I switch dogs and socialize them.  It’s a new experience, but one I enjoy.

Thank you for your support!
