Make A Gift, Make A Difference
The Penn Vet Working Dog Center is self-sustaining through individual, government, foundation, and corporate gifts and grants. That means we rely on your support and participation.
Gifts of all sizes impact support our mission of training, research, and education as well as many other essential needs.
Volunteer With the Best Team in Town
Volunteers are the backbone of our operation. There are many opportunities to get involved and share your skills and talents.
Foster a Working Dog
Our puppies live with foster families while training to be a working dog. Each future hero dog in training goes to “school” Monday through Friday, but needs a family to provide love and fun on evenings and weekends.
Donate a Puppy
Join breeders from across the country who have donated incredible working dog puppies to our program. Puppies arrive at 8 weeks of age and will graduate to work in careers in public health and safety.
