Adelaide is your typical teen--a swiftie, dog-lover, horse-enthusiast, lover of a twirly dress and matching ring, and cares deeply about children.  Adelaide had a stroke at birth that caused Cerebral Palsy and Epilepsy.  Her epilepsy is uncontrolled even after brain surgery and VNS implant.  We believe that a dog would be a great success for Adelaide as it will provide much support for her emotionally and physically.  

It's an expensive endeavor and we would love your partnership, but mostly covet your prayers!  Please share with your friends.  :). Adelaide thanks you!!

Training a service dog to meet our child’s requirements can be very costly. On average it costs between $40,000-60,000 to raise, train, and place a service dog at 4 Paws for Ability. While 4 Paws for Ability fundraises to help cover a significant portion of this cost, families are tasked with raising $20,000 of that amount or $23,000 if receiving a poodle, doodle or papillon. We hope that we can receive assistance from our beloved family and friends to help make our service dog dream a reality.
