What is independence to you? Do you turn lights on/off without assistance? Can you dress unaided? Do you run, swing, participate in social activities without fear of seizures? Everyday children & teens living with a variety of disabilities need tools to live their lives independently. For many, a service dog is the perfect addition to their tools.

Service dogs are highly trained with specific tasks & skills to increase independence while working unobtrusively in all environments. Fetching dropped items, guiding visually impaired individuals, turn lights on/off, alerting to sounds for hearing impaired individuals, or medical alerts for diabetes or seizures, assisting in dressing or doing the laundry - these are just a few on the tasks service dogs do everyday.

Independence is something we all treasure and deserve. You can make it happen for children & teens by supporting CDK and this outstanding event.

You can Go Over The Edge and make the difference!
