ROCKLIN RESIDENTS UNITE FOR FIDO

Since 2014, the RRUFF Healing Program has been supporting disabled veterans and first responders with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder(PTSD) and other invisible disabilities. We fund service dog training classes for individual hero/dog teams. The classes are held at several locations in the Greater Sacramento Region. We work with local service dog training organizations to provide the funds required to complete the training at no cost to the student.

Our original mission in 2011 was to establish Rocklin's first off-leash dog park. The park opened inside Johnson-Springview Park in 2011. We completed construction of the “Special Needs Area” in 2014 for the purpose of providing an outdoor site for service dog training. for those we serve. It is also available to other service dog training groups in addition to veteran’s groups. Currently Guide Dogs for the Blind uses the site for their Puppy Raiser classes,. All at no cost to them. And local rescue groups use the area for Adoption Days. Local breed meetup groups hold their monthly events here as well .
