What does my donation support?
Your donation dollars go directly to the raising and training of service dogs. This includes food and treats for our dogs, training gear, shelter and play area maintenance, grooming, veterinary care and more!
How long does a Dog Sponsorship last?
4 Paws service dogs spend approximately two years being raised and trained for this important work. Your sponsorship makes this journey possible.
It takes an exceptional dog to graduate as a service dog, and not every dog will complete our program. All dogs must meet our standards of trained skills, health and temperament to ensure they are the perfect match for the families we serve. Because of this, it is important to note that a puppy can be released from the program at any time. Ongoing updates will be provided through professional training until graduation or until released as a “fabulous flunky” adoptee.
Once your sponsored dog completes the program as either a service dog or fabulous flunky, you will be automatically paired with your next service dog in training.
How long does a Child Sponsorship last?
4 Paws serves approximately ten children each month. Your sponsorship makes these placements possible.
A Child Sponsorship lasts four months. After the children you sponsor receive their service dog, you will be automatically paired with another group of children to sponsor.
Can I sponsor a dog or child as a gift to someone?
Yes! Simply check the “Gift this Sponsorship to a Friend” box during your sponsorship selection and answer the additional questions. Monthly sponsorship updates will be sent to the recipient of the gift.
Will there be future opportunities to sponsor more dogs and children?
Yes! The dogs and children you can sponsor will rotate every quarter.
Can I meet the dog I sponsored?
We encourage all sponsors to attend the graduation ceremony of the dog or class they have sponsored.
Can I sponsor a dog or child through a one-time gift?
Yes! Please contact KaLynn Clark at kalynnclark@4pawsforability.org or (937) 944-3580 to make arrangements.
