Mission
Dogs Inc mission is to transform lives by creating and nurturing extraordinary partnerships between people and dogs.
Program accomplishments
- When people lose vision, it's easy to lose hope. When veterans lose hope, it's easy to give up everything. It's easy to let darkness define life instead of living life to its fullest. Our dogs deliver hope to people who need it most.* We currently ensure the wellbeing of over 1,300 dogs, including puppies and dogs training on our campus, dogs growing in puppy raiser homes, and active guide, service, and skilled companion dogs transforming lives throughout the country. During the past year, we placed more than 130 dogs into important, impactful careers.* We provide a personal, caring touch through follow-up services to more than 700 graduates throughout the United States. Our students-people with vision loss and veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder-report a 99.7% overall satisfaction rating in their exit surveys.* Dogs Inc operates the most comprehensive alumni support of any service dog organization in North America. Thanks to partnerships with Fromm Family Pet Food, Elanco and private donors and veterinarians, our organization ensures that every graduate can receive-completely free of charge-premium dog food, monthly preventatives, vaccinations, and financial support for their veterinary needs.Expenses $16,326,740 · revenue $354,729
