We are very fortunate to be able to place many of our dogs in homes that have special needs.
Some very special children have benefited from our working with Foundations that specialize in children and adults with autism, downs syndrome, emotional, and physical limitations.
Current foundations and associations that we have placed dogs with:
Laurie Soloski with Patty Dobbs Gross, founder of North Star Foundation North Star Foundation
Dr. William (Bill) & Elaine Davis with Samantha (Kentfields SOS of North Star). Bill and Elaine are the founders of SOS Health Care in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Click on picture to view video of Bill Davis and his children’s program using dogs as a bridge to their socialization. SOS Health Care
Sam is from our girl Sally (Kentfield’s Miss Sally Brown). Sam originally started with Dr. Davis in his training program, and has since moved into his permanent service dog home.
