You would be surprised, your community, church, family, friends, and even strangers do help you fundraise. It took us 45 days.

I wish I could afford a dog for my son. The price for one of these dogs is about $15,000.00! Not within the reach of those of us without means.

Hi, I have Asperger’s Syndrome and OCD, for which I have a service dog. She helps me so much. Best of luck in your quest for a service dog if it would help you too.

What a great dog you have.
I have what they call High Functioning type of Aspergers (a mild form of austim), also with ADD and with panic attacks in very public places like malls and just getting around town. I’m hoping to get a service dog to help me. Besides I’m a dog lover.

this looks like a great program. My daughter is PDD-NOS and isn’t severe as other autistic children, but still can be a handful and she wants a dog too.

4 Paws does not have a waiting list. Our families do fundraising to qualify for their dog and most have their dogs within a year.
