Dogs for Good

Dogs for Good is a charity that brings people and dogs together to make life possible for the people they work with. They enable dogs to help people affected by disability, dementia, autism, and other conditions to live happier, healthier, more independent lives.聽 We all know how good dogs are for us and the difference they can make to our lives but Dogs for Good dogs really do open doors, connect people and keep families together.
