The dogs chosen to participate in the prison program are unwanted, abandoned or surrendered dogs that would otherwise live out their lives in multiple foster homes or be euthanized.  These animals desperately need our help.

The dogs in the New Leash on Life program learn to trust their inmate trainers and receive the basic obedience training necessary to make them a welcome companion in a loving home.

All of the dogs available for adoption are spayed or neutered, on heartworm preventative, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. They come with a free collar and leash; 30 days of free pet insurance; and a care package. The adoption fee is $85, and there is a 2-week trial period to make certain you've found the right match. If you would like to meet any of these dogs  or learn more, please fill out the application at www.triadspca.org/application.html and an SPCA rep will contact you as soon as possible.
