Join us on November 13, 2010 to honor the newest recipients of Canine Companions assistance dogs in the Southwest Region. Graduation begins at NOON at the Serra Center at the Mission San Luis Rey Parish at 4070 Mission Avenue in Oceanside, California. Graduations are open to the public with free admission.

 

Canine Companion's graduation ceremonies occur four times a year. At these inspiring events, people with disabilities graduate with their new, highly-trained assistance dogs.  These dogs have been in training for over two years and know approximately 50 commands including opening doors, turning on/off lights, and retrieving dropped objects.  The graduation ceremony is the culmination of an intensive, residential, two-week Team Training course with these new human/canine partners at the Canine Companions Southwest Regional Training Center in Oceanside.
