| Our Dogs Past and Present | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| We do not breed dogs to obtain the characteristics that we look for in a potential service dog in training. The majority of the dogs that are in our program come from high kill shelters, local rescue groups, owner surrender/donation, and a few from private breeders. The breeds that we most commonly use range from pure breeds like Labrador Retrievers, English Pointers, and Catahoula Curs. Though the large majority of our dogs are mixed breeds that include but are not limited to Labrador, Collie, Spaniel, Catahoula, Pointer, and Poodle mixes. We also periodically have teams in our Owner Train program. These are individuals that are training their own service dogs under the guidance of Working Paws Assistance Dogs for many different reasons. |
