There’s no better pick-me-up than a warm cup of coffee, but what if your coffee came with a chance to pet some adorable puppies and dogs? Throughout March and April, Canine Companions volunteers and supporters aim to partner with local and college coffee shops to host Coffee & Canines events.

The goal of these events is to raise awareness about Canine Companions during our 50th anniversary, while spreading joy and puppy love throughout the community.

Plus! Share a photo of you with a future service dog and include the hashtag #coffeeandcanine for the chance to be featured on our national social media pages! Don’t forget to tag Canine Companions!
