PAWS ON PAROLE
Learning, Giving, Changing Lives
The Paws on Parole program pairs shelter dogs from Alachua County Animal Services
with inmates from the Florida Dept. of Corrections. The dogs live with and are trained by
the inmates for 8 weeks. Using positive training techniques the handlers teach the dogs
the basic skills necessary to pass the AKC's Canine Good Citizen Test and to improve
their chance of adoption into a forever home.
If you are interested in adopting a "Paws on Parole" dog please contact Hilary Hynes at
Alachua County Animal Services. 352-264-6881
