CCAA is still searching for the perfect home for Phoenix, our Service Dog in training. While he's in our care, he's living a life full of adventures, and we are determined to make sure his forever home will continue to give him opportunities to work hard and play often. If you're looking for a service dog with a solid foundation, email [email protected] to learn more about Phoenix.

Phoenix has been so busy working and training! He's gone on field trips all over the area. Check out some highlights from this weekend! Service Dogs should *never* eat food on the floor of restaurants. Wait for the clip of him ignoring Charlie's toddler mess and our Board of Directors monthly meeting at Panera!

2024 Bourbon Raffle... and the winner is...
2024 Bourbon Raffle Review!
Since Phoenix's return to CCAA, he has been exceptionally busy running errands, reviewing training, brushing up on old skills, and enjoying life on the farm. Because CCAA did not plan for dog ownership in 2024, as it is not part of our programs typically, we are calling on our supporters. To pay for Phoenix's general care and upkeep until he finds his permanent home, please support one of our fundraisers current or upcoming, donate, or spread the word about our academy far and wide. We really appreciate the outpouring of love and support we've received this week! We can't wait to see what Phoenix's future holds.

Phoenix had his first group class with his owner and handler. Joined by Mo, Albus, and Rip, they had the perfect crew to ease them into high distraction work with other dogs. They're making incredible progress together, and we are SO PROUD!

ultiMUTT 2024 Track & Field Day was an incredible time! We can't thank everyone enough for coming out in force to support CCAA and our mission.
First and foremost, we have to thank our Fundraising Committee Chair, Stephanie, and her right-hand gal, Peggy, for their work in securing the perfect location, wonderful prizes, and building the "Summer in Cincy" Raffle Basket, among many other tasks this year.
From the fundraising committee to the Board of Directors and event volunteers, everyone chipped in to make the event happen smoothly!
We have to thank @biggbyeastgate for providing our event volunteers with coffee and snacks! Another thank you to Embellish FX for sponsoring CCAA and covering our volunteer t-shirts this year.
ultiMUTT 2024 raised $4,110.23 for Caped Canines! We still have bags and shirts to sell. In fact, you can order an event t-shirt online until May 12, and 20% of the proceeds will be donated back to CCAA. (https://embellishfx.net/collections/cape-canine) Plan on seeing our tote bags available for purchase at Pups & Pumpkins this fall!
To our event attendees, thank you for your time and generosity. We hope you had as much fun today as we did. We couldn't have asked for a better crowd on this beautiful day!

Phoenix spent time with Executive Director, Tori! They worked on: heeling with distractions on and off leash, automatic stand, distractions, holding stand while his harness goes on and off, holding down while his collars go on and off, retrieving, touch paired with heart rate changes, food distractions, differentiating stand, sit, and down, and settling.
