Dogs learn to respond to verbal and hand signals and are taught to work for toys and affection. They are trained to make physical contact and lead their teammates to the source of a variety of sounds.
We have four types of dogs:
Hearing Dogs Hearing Dogs are professionally trained to alert people to household sounds that are necessary to everyday safety and independence. They are also thoroughly obedience trained. Hearing Dogs may be placed with qualified applicants who are deaf or hard of hearing. Visit the 'Hearing Dogs' page for more information.
Miracle Mutts (Special Dogs for Special People) are special furry friends who provide companionship, motivation, and emotional support to people who need a helping paw. These dogs help with depression and loneliness; they provide a reason to get up in the morning and motivation to exercise; and they generally make life more worth living.
Harmony's Hounds (Dogs with Special Needs) are dogs who have a special physical or emotional need and are looking for someone willing to provide a stable, loving home and any special care they might need with things like on-going medical concerns, old age, anxiety issues, allergies, and seizures. In the right, special environment, these dogs can thrive and provide lots of love.
