Description
Paws With A Cause is currently looking for volunteers to raise our future Assistance Dogs in the Chicago area. A puppy is placed in your home at 9 weeks of age and returns to PAWS for its formal Assistance Dog training at 18 months of age. No previous training experience is necessary. Just a willingness and motivation to learn. PAWS provides weekly training classes for our Puppy Raisers and we are able to provide routine Veterinary care for the puppy at no charge to the Raiser.
