Each puppy from a specific litter has a name starting with the same letter. Sonia, Sasha, Sissy, etc. A mommy dog usually has five litters then is retired.
There is a 2-year waiting list to receive a successfully trained dog. Basically, two dogs are bred specifically for each recipient and during the 2-week training period, the person will work with both dogs to see which one works best for them.
CCI needs families that are willing to raise a puppy until it is 1 ½ years old. Utah has a strong network of Puppy Raisers. Visit http://www.cci.org/site/c.cdKGIRNqEmG/b.4011029/k.6CF1/Puppy_Raising_Program.htm to learn about being a Puppy Raiser.
Cross your fingers that our family will be awarded a dog.
