Battier’s Journey
Battier
Battier
Battier was specially bred to become
a Canine Companions assistance dog.
She was born in the home of a volunteer
breeder caretaker and nurtured with her
five siblings until they were 8 weeks old.
For the next year and a half, Battier
was raised by a volunteer puppy raiser
who provided a safe home, took her to
obedience classes, served up a healthy diet,
provided socialization opportunities and
gave lots of love.
Arrives
“The effort and science put into
breeding is obvious from the start.
You can see how smart the puppies
are. Even at such an early age the
dogs are eager to learn things.”
— Kelley, volunteer breeder caretaker
Socializes
“We went on so many adventures
during our year and a half together,
but I knew her journey was just
beginning.”
— Laura, volunteer puppy raiser
Battier
Battier
Battier arrived back at Canine Companions
and began training with professional
instructors.
Battier graduated as a service dog and now
provides greater independence to a person
with a disability.
Excels
“Battier was always ready and willing
to work. Her favorite command was
‘tug.’ She would do it and wiggle her
tail the whole time.”
— Maria, Canine Companions apprentice instructor
Serves
“There are never enough words
to express how much Canine
Companions service dogs have
changed my life and how much they
mean to me. These dogs truly create
life-changing experiences.”
— Nancy, four-time Canine Companions graduate

As a supporter of Canine Companions for Independence, you have been
and continue to be an essential part of a national organization that is the
first, largest and leading provider of highly trained assistance dogs for
people with physical, cognitive and developmental disabilities. Because
of you, we have been able to help those we serve at no cost to them.
Your commitment to Canine Companions has enabled us to reach and
serve more people than ever before.
15 Loyal Support
Let us reflect on some of the milestones we’ve achieved together in 2015:
• A record 309 exceptional dogs were partnered with individuals and
facilities serving client groups with special needs nationwide.
• We celebrated the opening of our sixth training center in Texas and
added a new region — the first in over 25 years. This also marked the
first time that Canine Companions has partnered with a major health
care organization. With much gratitude to our friends at Baylor
Scott & White Health, we are thrilled to be able to serve more Texas
residents and thereby increase our capacity nationwide — together.
• We unveiled the Canine Early Development Center to offer
additional professional support to our volunteer breeder caretakers
to help get our litters of puppies off to a great start.
• Placements of PTSD service dogs and our work with the
Department of Veteran Affairs accelerated.
• It was an active year for advocacy and outreach.

40 Years and Growing…
With a record-breaking 309 placements in 2015 and nearly 5,000 dogs placed since 1975, Canine Companions
continues to expand services to help meet the high demand for our highly trained assistance dogs.
Baylor Scott & White Health (BSWH) was a major
contributor to the growth we achieved in 2015. Thanks
to over three years of hard work and service-oriented
partnership, BSWH helped us complete the first phase
of construction for the sixth Canine Companions
training center. The new center now includes a training
center, six fully accessible dormitories, 24 kennels, a
grooming spa and veterinary clinic. After phase two of
funding and construction is completed, the new Texas
training center will provide Canine Companions with
the full capacity to place 60 additional teams each year.
Additionally, BSWH has furthered the expansion of
Canine Companions’ services by raising funds, increasing
awareness, recruiting puppy raisers and significant
funding toward the new national breeding program’s
Canine Early Development Center. This is the first
partnership of its kind and we are thankful to be able
to help more individuals together.

With over 2,000 teams active currently, Canine Companions is committed to providing quality service to ensure
success between our graduates and their assistance dogs for the life of the partnership. To help identify specific
impacts Canine Companions assistance dogs have in the lives of people with disabilities, we conducted a survey
in 2015. Data collected will help evaluate the needs of our graduates and areas for improvement.

Exceptional Dogs for Exceptional People®
Lizzy and Skilled
Companion Kavi
cci.org/skilledcompanions
Michelle and Hearing
Dog Marguerite
cci.org/hearingdogs
“Lizzy has Down syndrome, so she always had obstacles,” explains Camilla,
Lizzy’s mom. “But she was able to
attend regular school through third
grade. She played sports and was in
the school play.”
That all changed after Lizzy fell off
a horse. “She became really ornery
and was disruptive during class. She
didn’t want to play sports and became
withdrawn,” explains Camilla. “For
over a year, I took her to various
doctors and I told them something
was wrong. Liz wasn’t her usual self
in so many ways, but the doctors kept
telling me she was fine.”
It wasn’t until Lizzy passed out
and was taken to the emergency
room, that doctors finally discovered
she had broken her neck. It took two
surgeries to fuse her first and second
cervical vertebrae.
“After the second surgery she had
to wear a cervical halo head brace,
24/7 for six months,” says Camilla. “It
was a difficult and long six months. Liz
was dependent on someone to assist
her with everything. She became
withdrawn and her friendships slowly
slipped away.”
Then Lizzy received Skilled
Companion Kavi, a beautiful Golden
Retriever. “Getting her an assistance
dog has brought the old Lizzy back!”
says Camilla. “Kavi has given her a
sense of independence, self-esteem
and confidence. I didn’t expect all
of the benefits! Liz has blossomed
and she is the happy, delightful girl I
remember before she broke her neck.”
Hearing Dog Marguerite could not
have come into Michelle’s life at a
better time. Michelle had just lost her
husband to a heart attack two months
prior to receiving an invitation to Team
Training at Canine Companions to
receive a hearing dog.
“Marguerite really helped turn my
life around,” says Michelle. “I was
able to start sleeping again and I
didn’t miss my neighbors coming
by the house to check on me or
bring me food.”
In fact, it was Michelle’s late husband who had initially discovered
Canine Companions while he was
on a business trip. “He traveled a
lot for work. On one trip, he met a
Canine Companions hearing dog
at the airport,” says Michelle. “He
learned how a hearing dog could
help me when I was by myself. It’s a
little scary being by yourself when
you can’t hear.”
Michelle’s late husband also
helped her extensively through
the application process, because
at the time Michelle was doing her
residency and working 100 hours
a week to become an oncologist.
“After everything that happened,
I didn’t even remember I was on the
waiting list for a hearing dog until
I received my invitation to Team
Training,” admits Michelle. “My husband had told Canine Companions
that a hearing dog would help me
when he wasn’t around.” His words
proved to be very true.
Marguerite is older now, but
she still loves to go to work with
Michelle. “Marguerite has been
working in oncology as long as I
have!” laughs Michelle. “The trainers did such a good job matching
me with Marguerite. She is up for
anything! Marguerite absolutely
changed my life.”

Bruce and Service
Dog Takoda
cci.org/servicedogs
Sarah and Facility
Dog Mabel
cci.org/facilitydogs
“The moment I hit the water, I knew
something was wrong. I remember thinking, ‘I just killed myself,’”
explained Bruce when recounting
the events of his injury that left him
paralyzed from the neck down. It
was the summer of 1973 and Bruce
was 18 years old. He spent the next
13 months in hospitals with eight
code blues and one coma. His
doctors originally told him he had
only 10 to 12 years to live.
Bruce was always a competitive
person and quickly realized that
he was stronger than the doctors
ever thought. But he needed more
than just being at home with TV
and occasional visits from friends.
In 1988, Bruce’s sister learned
about Canine Companions for
Independence at a festival. She
immediately thought of Bruce
and the possibilities a dog might
provide for him to further increase
his independence. Bruce applied
and received his first service dog,
Guide, later that year.
“In the beginning I did not realize
all the benefits of having such a
loyal and giving partner,” remembers Bruce.
Now matched with his third
service dog, Takoda, Bruce says,
“I couldn’t have found a better
partner or friend.” Takoda helps
Bruce by picking things up off the
floor, pulling items out of his way, or
calling for help. “Takoda has given
me a sense of security that I didn’t
have prior.”
“Over 80% of the kids we serve are
victims of child abuse or neglect,”
says Facility Dog Mabel’s handler,
Sarah, who is the founder of the
Phoenix Center in Texas. “Mabel has
had countless, powerful interactions
with the kids we serve. She is happiest when she is working. Mabel
naturally wants to connect and be
with the kids as much as possible.
She is a special girl.”
The Phoenix Center provides
mental health care for children and
families in need. Much of the support Mabel provides occurs during
therapy sessions, whether she is
providing pressure and sensory input, or encouraging communication
and providing comfort.
One child Mabel has helped is
an 11-year-old who is on the autism
spectrum. “We’ve had Mabel do a
modified command, ‘crash,’ which
gave Mabel permission to lay and
put her full weight across the
boy’s lap, when he was upset and
unregulated. This created sensory
input, and weighted pressure, which
helped calm and ground him,”
explains Sarah. “His breathing
changed and he even said, ‘Mabel
is so peaceful and relaxing. I feel so
much better and calm.’”
Already in her short time at the
Phoenix Center, Mabel has become
a favorite among clients, staff and
is even a little bit of a celebrity in
their small town. Sarah and Mabel
graduated together as part of the
first Team Training to take place at
the new Canine Companions Baylor,
Scott & White Health Kinkeade
Campus in Irving, Texas. The new
training center opened in October
2015. “She has been an invaluable
member of the team,” says Sarah.

One Team. Two Heroes.™
Gnome is a Labrador Retriever with an important mission: He makes
everyday life easier for a combat-injured veteran. Like all Canine
Companions assistance dogs, Gnome was matched with Marine Corps
veteran Justin at no cost to Justin, thanks to the support of donors like you.
“We were deployed to Afghanistan,” Justin recalls. “It was a regular
day and we were doing a normal mission. I stepped on a pressure plate
IED (Improvised Explosive Device). I lost both legs just above the knee
and multiple fingers on both hands.”
It has been several years since Justin was injured. He spent 13 weeks
in the hospital following his injury and he was on a ventilator for 19 days.
Last year Justin had surgery on his hand and he hopes it will be his last.
“I haven’t let my injuries slow me down,” says Justin. “I still try to do
everything I did before. There’s nothing I can do to change the past. It’s
not going to bring my legs back. I’m not going to sit around and mope
about it. That’s what Gnome is for — to help me move on and strive to
do my best.”
Justin’s rapid recovery and positive attitude are remarkable. Still,
he struggles. “It’s hard to balance,” he explains. “These knees (on my
prosthetic legs) don’t bend and I have to spread my legs really far to
reach the floor. My wrists are really bad. I have arthritis, so putting any
pressure down on them is super killer on me. Having Gnome to pick
things up saves me a whole lot of pain.”
Gnome provides emotional benefits as well. “When I feel stressed out,
I just look at him and start petting him and he makes me feel better,”
says Justin. “He’s my best friend.”

Veterans with PTSD
We continue to advocate in support of veterans with disabilities in
Washington, D.C. and through The Canine Companions Veterans
Initiative™.
In 2015 we were thrilled to have placed the first group of service
dogs for veterans with PTSD as a contractor with the Department of
Veteran Affairs and their ongoing study. Through this study, which
seeks to evaluate the therapeutic effectiveness of service dogs for
veterans with PTSD, Canine Companions hopes the VA will recognize
the value service dogs provide to those with PTSD.

Loyal Support
Veterinarian Russ Gurevitch, DVM is considered by many to be as loyal
and committed as the dogs he treats. “Russ is willing to do anything for
Canine Companions. He does great work and sometimes sings opera
during surgery,” laughs Canine Companions Breeding Program Veterinarian
Ruth Daniels, DVM. “His skills and knowledge have been invaluable. He is
always there to offer his professional advice or a second opinion.”
Russ is a veterinary surgeon, owner and chief of staff of Veterinary
Referral Surgical Service in California. Russ has been donating his time
and resources to support Canine Companions since 1978; almost the span
of our entire 40 year history.
Russ originally got involved as a donor and by volunteering his services.
Then he served on the breeding committee and helped with consultations.
His involvement grew over the years and he joined the National Board
of Directors in 1991.
“The expansion of Canine Companions in the last few years has been
astonishing. Obviously in terms of the number of graduates, but also in
our efficiency,” says Russ. “We have become more effective than ever
in selecting our breeder dogs thanks to Dr. Daniels on the genetics side
and CEO Paul Mundell on the research side. It has cut down on a lot of
the work I do, because we have few eye, hip and elbow issues.”
Canine Companions continues to advance the health and nutrition of
our dogs, and supporters like Russ make that possible. “I work part time
now, but because I love what I do, retirement isn’t a consideration,” says
Russ. “I could do more surgeries for Canine Companions, but there isn’t
much for me to do, since most of the dogs are so healthy!”
In addition to serving on the National Board of Directors, Russ is a
member of Canine Companions’ research committee, helping evaluate
and select research projects to advance our services as the premier
assistance dog organization. He and his wife Terry are also members of
the Monthly Miracle Maker program.

Gold Award Puppy Raising
“At first her dad and I were like ‘Yeah right, we’re going to raise a puppy
and then give it away,’” explains Teresa, Kelly’s mom. “If not for Kelly
encouraging us to approve puppy raising as her project to earn the Girl
Scout Gold Award, we would have never done this. It was the best thing
we have ever done.”
The Ludovice family returned Nicola III to Canine Companions last
year for professional training after loving, socializing and training her for
a year and a half.
“What we saw the day we turned her in; it was such an inspiration to
attend the graduation and matriculation ceremony,” says Teresa. “Attending
the ceremony was the perfect way for a puppy raiser to see what it is
going to be like if the puppy you raised graduates. How can you not let
that puppy go when you know their potential to help someone?”
“I have disabilities myself,” explains Kelly. “I have a developmental delay
and I tend to freak out when it is really loud. I learn at a slower rate than
other kids my age, but we were even able to adjust Nicola’s training a bit
to work with my disability.”
Kelly’s favorite part of puppy raising was taking Nicola out in public
and seeing people’s reactions. She also enjoyed giving presentations
about Canine Companions. “It was my passion for assistance dogs that
got me through the public speaking. It is something I love to talk about,”
says Kelly. “I really like to inform people that Canine Companions gives
the dogs for free to people with disabilities and they do a really great
job of matching the dogs with the right people.”
“Kelly had to show leadership to earn her award,” says Teresa. “So
she did presentations for six different groups. I was so impressed
that an 18-year-old could do public speaking like this in front
of kids of all ages and adults. Puppy raising was such a great
family experience.”
The Ludovice family said they’d love to raise another puppy
if Nicola graduates, but if she doesn’t make it they will keep
her as a pet. “So it is a win, win. If she makes it, she gets to
do what she was born to do. But if she doesn’t make it, we’ll
love to have her as our pet. Maybe she’ll have a change of
career; there are lots of nursing homes around here that
would love to see her visit,” says Teresa.

Fraudulent Service Dogs
2015 marked an active year for advocacy and outreach
on behalf of our graduates and all assistance dog
users. Canine Companions graduates told us about
their experience with fraudulent, questionable or
uncontrolled dogs. The feedback helped us realize
how much abuse of public access, which is granted by
the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and similar
laws, has grown. We will continue to work with and
educate our legislators and public officials in 2016 to
ensure that all assistance dog users can enjoy the full
benefits that working dogs can provide. Learn more

Raising puppies in prisons
not only benefits Canine
Companions and the
puppies, but the inmate
participants as well. For
more information, visit
cci.org/prisonpuppyraising.
Canine Early Development Center
Allowing us to better meet the growing demand for our exceptional dogs, the Canine Early Development
Center was opened at our headquarters in Santa Rosa, California. This center aims to support our
breeder caretakers by offering a state of the art facility, expertly trained staff and around-the-clock
care to assist with the birthing and care of the future generation of our working dogs. Since opening
in late 2015, we have welcomed 16 litters to date at the center and look forward to many more happy
moms and snuggly puppies. The center will enable Canine Companions to better assist our devoted
volunteer breeder caretakers and was funded in part by Baylor Scott & White Health.
