We focus on long-term empowerment through structured programs that develop essential life skills. Our youth participants not only learn to train dogs but also gain confidence, empathy, and responsibility. By addressing both their personal growth and the needs of the dogs they work with, we create a lasting impact that leads to brighter futures for all involved.
The founder of Puppy Love 7, Inc. brings years of experience from training service dogs for wounded veterans in Iraq and Afghanistan. Recognizing the power of connection, they saw an opportunity to use their expertise to mentor at-risk youth in a new, meaningful way. By pairing youth with dogs, the founder was able to provide these young individuals with a foundation of life skills while reducing the number of puppies facing euthanasia.
