Why We Fundraise

a smiling woman in a wheelchair with a yellow lab service dog standing with it's body across her lapCanine Companions is leading the service dog industry so our clients and their dogs can live with greater independence. We provide service dogs to adults, children and veterans with disabilities and facility dogs to professionals working in healthcare, criminal justice and educational settings. Since our founding in 1975, our dogs and all follow-up services are provided at no cost to our clients. 

“My service dogs helped me realize who I am as a person. Hudson made me brave, Geiler made me fun, and Data made me affectionate,” says Hilary. “They allowed me to chase my dreams.”
