Cell Dog Program

The Cell Dogs Program places homeless shelter dogs in an obedience training program with carefully selected inmates. The dog training program teaches inmates how to obedience train dogs during an intensive 8 to 16 week course.

Upon graduation, the dogs are highly adoptable and possess obedience skills such as how to heel, sit, recall, and stay. They are also housed trained, leash trained and responsive to voice commands and some hand signals.

If you are interested in adopting a Cell Dog:
