🐾🇺🇸 A New Journey Begins for Webster & Troy!

We are proud to announce that Webster has officially been placed with his veteran, Troy! ❤️

After 22 years of service in the United States Marine Corps, Troy is beginning a new chapter with Webster by his side. We are honored to be a part of their journey and look forward to seeing the incredible bond they continue to build.

Webster’s journey to becoming a service dog has been made possible by so many dedicated individuals and supporters. A special thank you to Oregon Correctional Center, where Webster was lovingly raised and given the foundation to become the service dog he is today.

This placement was made possible through the generous support of American Warrior Initiative and Fairway Home Mortgage, whose commitment to giving back to our nation’s veterans continues to make a meaningful difference. Webster’s name was proudly sponsored by Baraboo Elks Lodge #668.

Every placement is a reminder of why we do what we do. Behind each service dog is a community of people who believe in giving back to those who have served.

Please join us in congratulating Troy and Webster as they begin this exciting new chapter together! We wish you both a lifetime of partnership and unforgettable memories. 🐾❤️

🐾 6-Week Pup-Date!

Louise’s nine little golden potatoes are doing wonderful! They’re happy, healthy, and getting fluffier by the day.

Playtime has become a big part of their daily routine, and it’s been so sweet watching their little personalities come to life! They’ve also graduated to their big puppy collars, which you might spot in a few of their pictures!

Mama Louise continues to be amazing, and we’re so proud of the wonderful job she’s done raising these little ones. ❤️

A little puppy cuteness goes a long way! 🐶💕 Share these sweet faces with someone who could use a smile today!

A little spooky fun with our Custom Canines family! 🐾🎃

We had such a wonderful time celebrating Halloween with the people and pups who help make our mission possible!

The costumes were a hit, and our haunted training course brought a fun twist to everyday training! From heeling alongside wheelchairs to building confidence around new sights, sounds, and surfaces, our pups got to practice important skills with a spooky twist.

We ended the afternoon with some well-deserved off-duty playtime in the backyard, where all the dogs could run, play, and enjoy each other’s company!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an afternoon full of fun, laughter, and wagging tails. We’re so grateful for our amazing Custom Canines community! 🧡

A wild adventure for Porsche! 🦒🐾

Porsche, one of our West Coast puppies in training, enjoyed his first visit to The Living Desert Zoo & Gardens! From new sights and sounds to some pretty incredible animals, Porsche did a fantastic job exploring and experiencing it all!

Louise’s little crew is officially 5 weeks old and cuter than ever! 🥰

These nine little future heroes are growing fast! They’ve started enjoying softened kibble and are taking their first steps in potty training, which they’re catching on to pretty quickly! Between meals and naps, they’re busy playing, exploring, and showing off their adorable personalities.

And of course, we can’t forget Mama Louise! ❤️ She has been such an amazing, attentive mama to all nine of her babies. Five weeks in, and she’s still as happy and proud as ever!

We can’t believe how quickly these little ones are growing!

And speaking of growing… These future service dogs will soon be ready to take their next big steps! We’re looking for dedicated puppy raisers to help guide our little heroes on their journey. Could that be you? Stay tuned for more! 🐾
