The Program Designed with Emergency Responders in Mind

Paws for Responders is currently the only company solely focused on providing facility therapy dogs for emergency responder facilities.

Every puppy is specifically chosen and trained to best meet the needs of the individual facility.

This is a revolutionary, one of a kind program that caters to the unique needs of our emergency responders. We proudly provide departments with a dog that spends their workday, every day in the facility where they are needed the most.
