Meet Sadie ❤️ If all goes as expected, Dr. Caryn will be raising one of her puppies!

🐾 Exciting news to start the week: Sadie is pregnant!🐶💛

Sadie is expecting a litter in early November, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome the next generation of service dogs!

These puppies are more than an adorable new litter. They’re an important part of our plans to grow our breeding program and place more service dogs with people who need them. 🐾

Here’s what’s happening behind the scenes:
🏡 Preparing for puppies: Board member and longtime volunteer Polly has generously opened her home to Sadie for whelping and the puppies’ first weeks while our new facility is under construction.

🐕 Building for the future: Our new facility will include two dedicated whelping suites and two enrichment rooms, giving us the space to raise more puppies and expand our program.

💛 Growing our program:Since joining SDV in April, our Breeding Colony Manager, Jessica, has been working with Canine Genetic Services, our breeding consultant, to build a strong foundation for long-term success.

SDV will keep all but one of Sadie’s puppies for our program. One will go to Dogs Inc., which provided the sire. For the puppies staying with SDV, the journey from tiny puppy to working service dog will take about two years, including training and, eventually, placement with a client.

More puppies. More service dogs. More lives changed. ❤️

And you can help make that future possible! Our Together We Build campaign is funding the new facility that will help us grow our program and serve more people. Every gift brings us one step closer to that future. Help us build what comes next!

A quick-fix "board and train" program might sound tempting. HOWEVER, real, lasting behavior change happens where life actually happens—at home with you. With Dr. Caryn, you get private, personalized coaching designed for your dog's unique needs and your family's everyday routine. Instead of your dog just learning to behave for a trainer in a facility, Dr. Caryn teaches you how to confidently guide your dog through the real-life moments that matter most—from leash reactivity to separation anxiety.
