Canine Companions for Independence
About Canine Companions for Independence
Canine Companions (Delaware, OH campus) is the regional center of the national nonprofit that provides expertly-trained service dogs — free of charge — to people with disabilities.
What they are
Not a hire-a-trainer for your own pet: Canine Companions breeds, raises and professionally trains service, facility and skilled-companion dogs, then places them at no cost with children, adults and veterans with disabilities, plus ongoing follow-up support.
Programs
Service-dog placement and training programs run through the organization's professional trainers and volunteer puppy-raiser network, served locally from the North Central regional campus near Columbus.
Experience & credentials
One of the most respected service-dog organizations in the country, with decades of professional training experience and rigorous standards.
Who it’s best for
Best for people with disabilities seeking a trained service dog (or anyone wanting to volunteer/support) — not for general pet obedience, where a local trainer in this directory is the right fit.
