What’s better than a soft, cuddly puppy? Maybe the feeling you’ll get if that puppy grows up to become a life-changing partner for a person living with a disability.

Service dogs can open and close doors, turn lights on and off and pick up dropped items – a real help for a person who uses a wheelchair. And they provide unconditional love and acceptance. The road to becoming one of these priceless dogs begins in the home of a dedicated puppy raiser who will love, socialize and provide initial training.

You could become someone’s hero by fostering a puppy for Summit Assistance Dogs. Learn more at www.summitdogs.org/volunteer. Snuggle a puppy today and change someone’s life tomorrow.
