3 个月So blessed to puppy raise for Canine Companions and be a part of the amazing mission. We learn so much about each dog through the puppy raising journey and loved learning MORE in this documentary. Really worth the watch and as others have mentioned, great for a family sit down. It was fun to learn more about the matching process and the science behind it, truthfully we all just thought it was a little magic. If you are inspired please check out the volunteer opportunities at canine.org
