Ways to help

Put comfort in the hands of a first responder.

Every Trouble dog that reaches a child was funded by someone who chose to give. Here is how you can help, whether you're an individual, a department, or a business.

For first responders

Bring Trouble to your department.

Police, fire, and EMS agencies can start the "Trouble on the Scene" program in their community. This will allow them to have Trouble dogs to carry in cruisers, firetrucks, and ambulances. Download the info packet to see how it works, then reach out to get on the distribution list.
