Our Vision for K9 4 KIDS
At K9 4 Kids, our core values of honesty, love, and respect for all beings guide our mission to transform lives through the power of canine companionship. Our nonprofit organization is dedicated to:
​​
-
Rescuing and Rehabilitating Shelter Dogs: We recognize that many shelter dogs have not had the opportunity to complete obedience training or receive proper grooming, which can hinder their chances of finding a forever home. Our goal is to provide these dogs with the care, training, and love they need to become ideal companions for adoption.
-
Empowering At Risk or Special Needs Youth: We believe in the transformative potential of youth when given the right opportunities. Our programs are designed to help troubled or special needs youth find their place in life, learn valuable skills, and potentially pursue rewarding careers in dog training and grooming.
-
Creating Lasting Bonds: By pairing youth with shelter dogs, we foster a unique synergy where both learn the importance of love, companionship, and obedience. This mutual growth softens the edges of both the youth and the dogs, creating a harmonious environment for personal development.
