The HopeServiceDogs.org puppies are 10 days old, and all met their 10 day milestones of doubling their weight. Their personalities are developing, how much can we tweak them? And Rich got some new tools to build dog equipment!

These puppies were bred by Hope Service Dogs, Inc. Many will go on to become service dogs to help people with disabilities.   The parents (Seth & Lucy) are both fully health tested.   These puppies will be raised in NePoPo®, along with Puppy Culture, Early Neurological Stimulation and Early Scent Introduction. At 49 days, they will be temperament tested so they are matched with the right person/family.   To find out more, or make a donation, check out HopeServiceDogs.org.
