CCA/AD

 

The California Canine Academy/ Assistance Dogs (CCA/AD) Program was initiated as an extension of CCA’s  Programs. It was implemented in 2002 with the goal of training Golden Retrievers and Yellow Labrador Retrievers as Service Dogs, Hearing Dogs, Social/Therapy Dogs, Read Education Assistance Dogs (R.E.A.D.) Program and in the High School Assistance Dogs (HS-A Dog) Program for teenagers at risk. 

 

In 2006, the CCA/AD has expanded to include a complete puppy breeding and training program. Under the direction of Akari Shinohara, a Japanese Exchange Student, we have set up several new programs such as the Puppy Petting Program for kids, Puppy Training Program, Puppy Fostering and Happy Puppy Handling Homes.
