Who We Are

At Guide Dogs of America | Tender Loving Canines, we transform lives through partnerships with service dogs. We breed, raise, and train guide dogs for individuals who are blind/visually impaired and service dogs for veterans and children with autism. We also place facility dogs with professionals in hospitals, schools, and courtrooms. Our highly skilled canines become trusted companions that increase people’s confidence, mobility, and independence. All programs and services, including transportation, personalized training, room/board, and postgraduate support, are provided at no cost to the recipient.

What We Do

Located on a beautiful 7.5-acre campus in Los Angeles, Guide Dogs of America | Tender Loving Canines serves a diverse range of individuals from the U.S. and Canada. Our mission is to transform lives through partnerships with service dogs.

While many of us know the pleasure of our family pets, we relish the opportunity to facilitate a meaningful and productive relationship be­tween our clients and their service dog.

All of us at GDA | TLC greatly enjoy our work, and we’re grateful for our donors and volunteers’ generous support that changes the lives of so many.
