GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY WE LOVE
For years we have been dedicated to helping thousands of dogs push through fears, raise their confidence, and become responsive to their owners. Not only have we helped dogs, but we have helped their owners become more confident, be more in control and ultimately relieve a huge stressor.
Our program is looking for Rescue Groups who foster dogs within our service area that are experiencing behavioral issues with their dogs that prevent them from getting adopted! We are offering to send a senior trainer to the foster's home for free to help with the behaviors they are experiencing. The end goal is to get that dog adopted out and stay in their forever home!
We are continuously looking for candidates for our Suburban K9 Gives Back Program. Please fill out the application provided below for more information if you are from a foster based rescue group!

VOLUNTEER WORK
In 2019, our team volunteered at the Hunger Task Force Farm and Fish Hatchery in Franklin, WI that sits on over 200 acres. We split into teams and harvested 3,200 lbs of cantaloupe and 4,500 lbs sweet corn. The Hunger Task Force supplies food to over 95% of Milwaukee’s low income children, seniors and families. Most years they deliver over 9 million pounds of food! If you wish to volunteer
2021 SUBURBAN K9 STEP CHALLENGE
In August, 2020 and 2021, our team divided into 4 groups and competed against each other for their non-profit organization. We tracked internal steps, along with external steps donated by our Facebook followers. The Red Hot Chili Steppers won this challenge in 2020 and donated $1,500 to the West Suburban Humane Society. And, in 2021 Team Kickin Asphalt won and donated $1,500 to 4 Paws for Ability.
