Every dog and family deserves access to compassionate, effective training. Through our training-assistance program, eligible clients may receive scholarships or subsidized services when financial barriers would otherwise prevent them from getting help.

Jameson’s approved training plan has a remaining balance of $627 after Charli received a 25% scholarship. We are setting a $1,000 fundraising goal so that, in addition to supporting Jameson’s training, we can continue helping other families access positive-reinforcement training.

Jameson’s Story, in Charli’s Words

My boyfriend and I had just moved in together while both being college students when we decided we wanted to adopt a dog. When we met our dog at the shelter, we learned that he had already been returned twice. Even knowing that, we felt like he deserved another chance and a home where people would be patient with him.

Since bringing him home, we have grown to love him so much. He is energetic, loving, and has become a huge part of our little family. At the same time, he can be a lot to handle, especially around other dogs. He can become nervous and reactive, which makes walks and being around other dogs difficult.

As college students, professional dog training can be hard for us to afford, but we really want to give him the training he needs. Our goal is to help him become more comfortable, confident, and friendly around other dogs so that he can enjoy more experiences with us. We do not want him to become another dog who gets returned to the shelter. We want to give him the stability, patience, and forever home he deserves.

Donations will be made to and controlled by K9 Kate Inc. The $627 remaining balance will support Jameson’s approved training plan. Any funds raised beyond that amount will support future scholarships or subsidized training for other eligible clients through our nonprofit’s assistance program.

Your support—whether through a donation or by sharing Jameson’s story—can help him and Charli move forward while making compassionate training possible for more families. Thank you for being part of their journey.
