Sit and stay for a while with some very special dogs! Learn how service dogs help clients experience enhanced independence and how you can apply to help raise puppies for the program. 

Specially bred puppies need a safe home, rides to obedience classes, healthy food, a chance to be social and lots of love. Each hour spent caring for a Canine Companions puppy is vital to its development as a future service dog. The puppy-raising program gives volunteers a unique opportunity to assist with the organization’s very important mission by opening their homes and hearts to the puppies. 

As a destination for discovery for all ages, your Fort Worth Public Library offers opportunities to learn and experience new things and grow beyond traditional classroom settings.
