Canine Partners of the Rockies enables Coloradans with disabilities to lead more independent lives through partnership with highly skilled service and facility dogs. We place our mobility support dogs with no placement fee - removing the financial barrier to getting a service dog, and making our services accessible to more Coloradans. Accredited by Assistance Dogs Inter
Service dogs dramatically change the lives of people living with disabilities. They can open and close doors, pick up things like keys and wallets, and use keycards for door entry. Some of our dogs have event been trained to help out with the laundry!
A Facility Dog is specially trained to work in tandem with a professional in a school, hospital, or counseling center. Facility dogs provide comfort, companionship and courage to kids and patients dealing with trauma, testifying in court, or facing extensive medical procedures.
After two years of training for each dog, and a custom match process for every client, we support our teams throughout the lifetime of their partnership.
The mission of Canine Partners of the Rockies (CaPR) is to positively impact the lives of Colorado residents living with a disability by placing highly skilled service dogs with individuals who have mobility limiting conditions and facility dogs with professionals who provide therapeutic services. CaPR also is dedicated to educating the public about the role assistance dogs play in the lives of people with disabilities.
Canine Partners of the Rockies (CaPR) has been placing highly skilled service dogs in Colorado since 2002. We strive to partner people with the dog they have the best connection with and are excited to continue placing these wonderful dogs with Coloradans in need.
