Adoptable Dogs
While many of our dogs go on to become Service Dogs and are paired with a Veteran, some dogs do not qualify to live the Service Dog life and are career-changed.
The dogs eligible for adoption on this page are adoptable dogs career-changed from the K9s For Warriors program. While some of them have received training, none of them have completed Service Dog training and are NOT eligible for Service Dog certification.
