Domesti-PUPS’ mission is to improve the quality of life for persons with special needs through the assistance of animals and to promote awareness through education. Domesti-PUPS is a 501c3 community organization based in Lincoln and provides therapy dogs, service dogs and obedience-trained rescue dogs.
Domesti-PUPS’ service dogs help people overcome the limitations of their disabilities and the barriers in their environments. Their Pet Therapy program utilizes its certified therapy dog teams to provide meet and greet opportunities for people in nursing homes, hospitals and assisted living centers. Additionally, through the Edu-PUPS program, dogs are placed in the classroom to enhance learning and aid in the emotional leveling of children, such as Reading-PUPS, a program helping children with reading or speech difficulties.
To help support the continuation of programs like these and Domesti-PUPS’ mission, stop in at their open house event on August 17! To learn more, visit domesti-pups.org.
