Last updated on April 22, 2008 The NEADS puppy program is looking for volunteers to become weekend puppy raisers for our prison programs in Northampton, Concord, Gardner, Plymouth, Norfolk, North Dartmouth, and Roslindale, Massachusetts, in Niantic, Connecticut, and in Cranston, Rhode Island. Weekend puppy raisers commit their weekends to socializing one of our puppies for the year that s/he is being raised in one of our prison programs. They attend monthly puppy raiser meetings at our training facility in Princeton, MA and submit weekly 'furlough' reports for their puppies. Volunteers must be able to commit to a puppy's entire stay in the prison (one year). There is training provided by NEADS and by the correctional institutions.
