A Nonprofit With a Cause
The mission of Canines With a Cause is to unite veterans and rescued dogs to heal emotional and psychological wounds.
Veterans Program
Free for veterans, our program curriculum includes 300 hours of training, 6 levels of training and 5 tests before full certification.
Prison Program
Our prison program utilizes inmates to train and instill basic skills in rescue dogs, ultimately preparing them for entry into our veteran program.
Foster Program
There are many ways to foster, and you can choose what fits you best! We’ll be there every step of the way to help and provide encouragement, training, and all the supplies you’ll need.
“Having a service dog has helped me. And I know so many other people that I would consider worse off than me and they would benefit so much from it. So, I hope that Canines With a Cause can just continue to help everybody; dogs, those that are training them and the veterans. They’re basically saving three lives in one go.”
