2023 SUCCESS!...ONE HAPPY PUPPY AND OWNER
RIGHTEOUS PUPS EXISTS TO BRING PROMISE TO LIFE AND WE DO THAT BY RAISING CHAMPIONS AND LAUNCHING HEROES!
Making Change Possible
Our Champions are our Assistance, Type 1 Diabetes medical alert and Therapy Dogs who have that incredible ability to connect, bond and assist children with disability or disease, at risk teens and young people with disabilities to heal and thrive in life. Our Champions bring out the best in us and time and again we have seen lives transformed through canine intervention.
Our Heroes are the people we have the privilege to serve, our children and families living with Type 1- Diabetes and/or Autism Spectrum Disorders, our at risk teens deemed to be at significant educational risk, our young people with disabilities who allow us to assist them to bring their promise to life. We launch our Heroes into a new day, a new normal and a better tomorrow with quality, dignity, and hope.
Righteous Pups operate quality programs that provide hope, change and a better quality of life for all people in their moment of need.
WHO ARE RIGHTEOUS PUPS AUSTRALIA?
Starting in Bendigo in 2005, Righteous Pups was founded by Joanne Baker in response to her concerns about young people living within the cycle of disability, poverty and mental health issues within the City of Greater Bendigo and surrounding areas.
Today, Righteous Pups works with over 100 at risk teens and young people through our array of therapy dog programs and places 6-10 assistance dogs throughout Australia.
Righteous Pups trains dogs for assistance, facility and therapy roles which empower people to live with greater independence, social inclusion, and quality of life, through the active support and participation of people within the local community.
