We are Canine Partners.

We breed, train, and support expert assistance dogs to create loving, life-changing partnerships with disabled people.

Across the UK, we support people with a variety of physical disabilities and their families, carefully matching them with a dog that suits their needs, personality, and lifestyle.

Our dogs bring confidence and independence, love and companionship, reducing reliance on carers and giving people the freedom to live life their own way.

Help keep partnerships together this Christmas and beyond

No partner should have to choose between covering everyday costs and keeping their Canine Partner.

That’s where our Financial Assistance Fund comes in. It pays for essentials such as veterinary treatment, medication, specialist care, food and insurance, keeping partnerships together when times are tough. But the need for this support is growing.

Help us raise £60,727 we need to continue supporting disabled people facing financial hardship by donating today.
