Puppies Behind Bars (PBB) trains incarcerated individuals to raise service dogs for wounded war veterans and first responders, facility dogs for police departments, and explosive-detection canines for law enforcement. Puppies enter prison at the age of 8 weeks and live with their incarcerated puppy-raisers for approximately 24 months. As the puppies mature into well-loved, well-behaved dogs, their raisers learn what it means to contribute to society rather than take from it.
For nearly 30 years, Puppies Behind Bars has helped to build bridges and create common ground, through the kindness and sensitivity of hardworking dogs.
Legacy Stewards help secure a better future for those in need by including Puppies Behind Bars in their estate plans. Your legacy gift can help to ensure our future.
