Today is National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, and we want to take a moment to recognize the courage, dedication, and sacrifice of law enforcement officers everywhere.

We are honored to support those who serve our communities, and to witness the impact that partnership, trust, and steady support can have, both human and canine. Thank you for all that you do, today and every day. 💙🐕‍🦺

🎉 WE’RE SO EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE… 🎉

Anthem’s puppies are officially here! 🐾🤍
She welcomed 9 beautiful pups! There are 4 girls and 5 boys, and both mom and babies are doing amazing.

These tiny bundles of joy are already filling our hearts, and we can’t wait to watch them grow into the confident, capable future service dogs they’re meant to be. Every litter marks the beginning of something truly special; a journey that will one day change lives.

If you’d like to help support Anthem and her litter, we’ve put together an Amazon Wishlist with items needed for her puppies. Every donation helps give these future heroes the best possible start. 🐕‍🦺✨

We are incredibly grateful to Victor and Corrine for their generous $1,200 donation toward our elevator project. 💙
Support like this helps make our facility more accessible for the people and dogs we serve, and we truly couldn’t do this without our amazing community. Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us move one step closer.🐾

We had such a meaningful time coming together for our annual Custom Canines Holiday Party. ✨

Seeing our hardworking service dogs and the incredible community that supports them all in one room was a powerful reminder of why this mission matters. It was especially meaningful to share space with the veterans and first responders who are supported by their service dogs each day, alongside the many people who make this work possible behind the scenes.

We are deeply grateful for every person who plays a role in this mission. Here’s to another year of saving lives through the work of service dogs and continuing to serve those who have given so much. 🐕‍🦺🤍

As we step into a new year, our hearts are full of gratitude.

To our supporters, volunteers, puppy raisers, and donors, thank you for believing in our mission and making 2025 unforgettable. Because of you, lives were changed one service dog at a time.

We’re so excited for what’s ahead and honored to continue this journey together.

Happy New Year from all of us at Custom Canines 🐕‍🦺🤍

We’re grateful to WKOW 27 for sharing our story and helping spread the word about why accessibility matters.

We are raising $51,000 to replace our elevator lift, so veterans, first responders, and individuals with disabilities can fully access our training facility.

This lift is critical to ensuring every service dog team can train without barriers.

Thank you for helping us lift them up

MADISON (WKOW) - Custom Canines Service Dog Academy is looking to raise $51,000 to replace its lift elevator.

Because access matters for every team. 🐕‍🦺

Service dogs don’t work alone. Neither do the heroes they support.

Right now, our elevator lift needs to be replaced so every service dog team can fully access our training facility. Without it, some handlers face barriers that limit their training, and that’s not something we’re willing to accept.

We’re raising $51,738 to make our facility fully accessible for veterans, first responders, and individuals with disabilities.

Every step of training matters.
Every space should be accessible.

Thank you for helping us remove barriers and open doors. 🤍
