Supporting ACCT Fosters

and Their Dogs

Training sessions and community support for ACCT fosters, both in-person and virtually

Welcome ACCT fosters! At All Canines Academy, we understand the unique challenges that foster dogs often face, coming from backgrounds of trauma, neglect, and abandonment. Our mission is to support you in helping these dogs acclimate to their new lives, build confidence, and prepare for their forever homes. Through personalized training sessions and community support, we provide the tools and guidance needed to ensure your foster dog can thrive in a loving environment.
