We have weathered the storm, and our dogs, people, and campus are fine. Our thoughts are with those who were impacted by Hurricane Milton.

About us
Our extraordinary dogs transform lives throughout the country—at no cost to recipients. What makes our pups so special? Top-notch pedigrees and countless hours of training and love. Guide dogs turn darkness into light for people with vision loss. Service dogs restore freedom for veterans. Skilled companion dogs heal the broken hearts of those struggling with loss. And they never ask for anything in return. Neither do we. We offer our clients their loyal friends, expert instruction, and lifetime support free of charge—thanks to big-hearted donors and volunteers.

As Hurricane Milton makes its way toward the west coast of Florida, we are closely monitoring the situation. Of course, the safety of our dogs, volunteers, and pack members is at the forefront of every decision. There are no students residing on campus at this time. We activated our comprehensive hurricane preparedness plan, and we are fully stocked with critical emergency supplies, including plenty of dog food, water, and more. A skilled crew of employees will take care of our puppies and dogs during the storm. Our facilities have been built to withstand hurricane winds, in accordance with Miami-Dade building codes. We are equipped with generators; our fuel tanks are full, and we are as prepared as we can be to weather this storm. We hope you and your family (both two-legged and four-legged) stay safe.

Embrace the season with a pup by your side! When you become a volunteer puppy raiser, you’ll open your heart and share your world with a curious puppy. Bring a furry friend on your fall adventures, share heartwarming moments, and most of all—turn over a new leaf for someone who needs an extraordinary dog. Yes, you’ll fall in love with the cuddly puppy...but knowing someone else needs this magnificent dog makes it all worth it. 🐾 🍂 🫶

We are proud to share an extraordinary moment for Dogs Inc and the veterans we serve. 🇺🇸 🤍 Dogs Inc is receiving a $150,000 donation thanks to retired U.S. Navy Four-Star Admiral William McRaven, recipient of the 2024 Bezos Courage and Civility Award, presented by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez. This meaningful gift will bring hope and healing to veterans and their families through the loyalty and service of our extraordinary dogs. Admiral McRaven’s dedication to those who’ve served is deeply inspiring, and we are honored to carry this mission forward. (**Pictured: Navy Veteran John Alvarez and his service dog, Randall--representing the veterans who will benefit from this incredible gift.**)

Oh hey, Drew! 🐾 Today, we’re giving a big shoutout to our Dogs Inc facility therapy dog at North River Fire District. As we celebrate National Fire Pup Day, we honor dogs like Drew who comfort firefighters in tough times and help teach fire safety in our communities. Let’s hear it for these tail-wagging heroes—and the firefighters they proudly serve!
