From service dogs who support independence for people with physical disabilities, to school service dogs who provide comfort and cuddles to elementary, middle and high school students, WAGS dogs are making a difference in our communities!
WAGS is a community-based organization serving Madison and south-central Wisconsin. As the flagship service dog agency in our area, WAGS has facilitated over 200 client/dog partnerships, and has four clinical therapy dogs working in local schools.
All WAGS dogs are raised and trained by dedicated volunteers under the supervision of the WAGS Program Director. WAGS uses positive, force-free training methods and is committed to the health and happiness of all dogs in our care. Learn more about the WAGS Program.
