Collar Scholars at Carroll College is a puppy raising group with the goal of raising puppies that will become assistance dogs through Canine Companions. Canine Companions is a nationally affiliated and non-profit organization that provides expertly trained service dogs for people with disabilities free of charge. This club at Carroll consists of puppy raisers, puppy sitters and general members who all work together to raise puppies that will become service dogs through Canine Companions. Donations to this event will help support our club puppy raisers with the financial cost of raising puppies for Canine Companions including food, monthly preventatives, medical bills, and more. Puppy raisers volunteer their time and money to raising a puppy for up to 16 months in an effort to set them up for success as a service dog that can greatly impact someone life for the better. Even a small donation can mean a lot to a college puppy raiser.
