Summer 2021 Graduation

Graduation represents the completion of a long journey for the team. The puppy begins training in volunteer homes or at one of five Minnesota and Wisconsin prisons, where they are taught basic obedience and early assistance dog skills. After 22 months, they return to Can Do Canines for final training with staff and to begin their new life with a person with a disability. All are welcome to join us for this virtual event, and no RSVP is required. More information about Graduation.
