Jack, black Lab mixed breed dog at Puppies for Parole |
Right now Puppies for Parole is working with Jack on basic obedience training. Jack is still a puppy right now. He does have a potential home waiting for him with a man who has Parkinsons Desease. Puppies for Parole will be working with Jack on companion training.
If you're interested in Jack or a dog like him, contact the Missouri Puppies for Parole Program.
Puppies for Parole is a unique program made possible through their partnerships with animal shelters and animal advocate groups statewide. Selected offenders have the opportunity to become trainers to rescue dogs in the program. Offenders work with the dogs teaching them basic obedience skills and properly socializing the animals, making them more adoptable. Once the dogs have successfully completed the program they will be sent back to their original shelter to be placed up for adoption. Last year in Missouri, more than 46,000 homeless canines were euthanized. Puppies for Parole hopes to reduce that number by producing loving, obedient, adoptable dogs.
