2014 Annual Report Exceptional Dogs for Exceptional People® EXCEPTIONAL DOGS FOR EXCEPTIONAL PEOPLE® | CCI.ORG 1 “Chanler is playful, affectionate and a diligent worker. He aims to please and takes pride and joy in alerting me to sounds every day. He has proven to be the perfect match for me.” — Jean with Hearing Dog Chanler 2 CANINE COMPANIONS FOR INDEPENDENCE® | CCI.ORG It all Starts With a Puppy, and You Canine Companions donors, volunteers, puppy raisers, breeder caretakers and graduates banded together to form chapters, host DogFest Walk ‘n Roll events and more in 2014. What did this collaboration all lead to? Record-breaking assistance dog placements and fundraising success! We are pleased and proud to report that in 2014, we matched 289 assistance dogs with people with disabilities, our professional trainers made over 950 in-person visits with current graduate teams as part of our support program, and our community helped us raise over $22 million. We also celebrated 2014 with the success of new collaborations with other organizations. We began construction on our new South Central Training Center, named the Baylor Scott & White Health Kinkeade Campus, thanks to our partnership with the non-profit Texas healthcare system and Judge Ed Kinkeade. We also were selected and began training dogs for a research study by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to determine the benefits of canine support for veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). 2014 is a tough act to follow. We appreciate former CEO Corey Hudson and previous Board Chair Anne Gittinger who allowed us to step into our new leadership roles at a time when Canine Companions is in the best shape it has ever been, and poised for growth. Additionally, Paul was named president of Assistance Dogs International to guide the coalition that provides education about assistance dogs, advocates for the legal rights of people with disabilities partnered with assistance dogs, and sets standards and guidelines for assistance dog training. The list of successes at Canine Companions is long, and is the direct result of the hard work and generosity of the entire Canine Companions community. In the pages that follow, you’ll read about 2014 highlights and some of the people who helped make 2014 a banner year. We’re excited to be a part of the long-term growth at Canine Companions and look forward to continuing to band together to help build our programs and services for people with disabilities.

EXCEPTIONAL DOGS FOR EXCEPTIONAL PEOPLE® | CCI.ORG 5 6 CANINE COMPANIONS FOR INDEPENDENCE® | CCI.ORG Expanding Help for Veterans With PTSD With the increase in military veterans returning from combat with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a new study is underway to see if a service dog or an emotional support dog can help. Canine Companions for Independence was selected as a contractor to furnish dogs for a study being performed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to determine the potential benefits of canine support for veterans with PTSD. “Canine Companions is always at the forefront of canine assistance and therapy,” states Paul Mundell, CEO of Canine Companions. “This study is an opportunity to support our veterans and provide insight into the potential benefits of a highly trained assistance dog for individuals living with PTSD.” Canine Companions has placed assistance dogs with 118 wounded or disabled veterans through its Wounded Veterans Initiative, and now is one of three organizations awarded contracts to provide quality dogs for the VA study. For the study, Canine Companions will be training dogs to complete five specific tasks that will potentially help veterans with PTSD, in addition to dozens of basic obedience commands and skills for public access. Canine Companions will also be providing emotional support dogs as a part of the research study.

Impressions on Facebook and Twitter EXCEPTIONAL DOGS FOR EXCEPTIONAL PEOPLE® | CCI.ORG 7 Exceptional Teams Joe and Service Dog Ansel III Isaac and Skilled Companion Kaylor “I lost a piece of my soul and everything that defined my very being—as a husband, a father, a friend and a business partner,” explains Joe as he recounts his 2010 sailboat accident. “The accident left me a quadriplegic without the ability to move or feel anything below my neck. There was lots of mending to be done—both physically and mentally.” Joe attributes a lot of his recovery to Canine Companions for Independence, thanks to Service Dog Ansel. Joe and Ansel were matched together in 2012 free of charge. “Other than caring for Ansel and providing follow-up reports, Canine Companions asked for nothing in return for this gift I have been given,” says Joe. “He has given me a renewed and positive sense of self.” Joe and his wife Denise have become very involved with Canine Companions, joining the North Central Region Board of Directors, becoming a top fundraiser in the Columbus DogFest Walk ‘n Roll event, and working tirelessly to develop a course of action that may result in a new North Central Region campus. Joe received the 2014 Jack Warnock Volunteer Service Award, a national award that honors one volunteer annually who has exhibited significant dedication to Canine Companions and its mission. “Contributing to such a wonderful organization that revitalizes other recipients’ lives is actually one of the most meaningful and rewarding things I’ve done in my career and my life,” explains Joe. Kaylor jumped onto the bench and sat facing the camera. His buddy, Isaac, watched as the lights flashed with every photo taken. Kaylor is a skilled companion dog that was matched with Isaac free of charge in 2014. Prior to receiving Skilled Companion Kaylor, Isaac had overwhelming fear and anxiety and was unable to even enter the room with all the big photography lights. But after Kaylor showed Isaac how it was done, Isaac was able to have his yearbook picture taken for the first time. “Isaac’s lack of social skills and the fact that he is non-verbal and unable to make friends is what pushed us to apply for an assistance dog,” explains Dawn, Isaac’s mom. Isaac was diagnosed with severe autism and cognitive delays. “Isaac’s developmental pediatrician agreed that getting an assistance dog for Isaac would be a good idea.” Isaac, who uses an iPad to communicate, is already engaging more with Kaylor by his side. “He is teaching Kaylor to listen to commands from the voice on his iPad, and Kaylor picks it up so quickly!” says Dawn. “Having Kaylor has helped Isaac when interacting with his peers. In the past, Isaac stayed 30 feet away from anyone, covering his ears and never looking at anyone, but Kaylor made Isaac visible.” Dawn attributes the success of Isaac and Kaylor’s partnership to Kaylor’s temperament, “Kaylor doesn’t get overly excitable or get in Isaac’s face. He has the perfect temperament. He is now my third child and Isaac’s best friend.” 8 CANINE COMPANIONS FOR INDEPENDENCE® | CCI.ORG Karen and Hearing Dog Hazel IV Betsy and Facility Dog Morrow II Hearing Dog Hazel is always working for Karen, whether alerting Karen to her alarm clock, someone calling her name or an emergency vehicle coming down the road. “I don’t have to depend on someone to wake me up. I am less dependent on my family because of my hearing dog,” explains Karen. “When I am not wearing my cochlear implants, I am 100% Deaf. People may not realize I am Deaf, because I use my voice to speak. When I’m in public, Hazel helps people realize I’m Deaf and can’t hear them.” Karen received her first hearing dog from Canine Companions in 1991 and recently received her third hearing dog, Hazel. “I keep coming back to Canine Companions because I’m so impressed with the quality of the dogs I’ve received. The staff are so friendly and helpful. They’re always there if I need them,” says Karen. Thanks to Canine Companions supporters, Karen has received each of her hearing dogs free of charge. “Canine Companions dogs love to work and want to help. My dogs were trained to alert me to sounds that are important to me. Those sounds become important to them,” says Karen. “They are so eager to please and to do their job.” The U.S. Paralympic Sailing Team’s coach, Betsy Alison, has a unique assistant—Canine Companions Facility Dog Morrow. After observing the Paralympic sailors with their pets, Betsy saw the potential that a team dog could act as a stress reducer and psychological motivator for athletes. She consulted with several sports psychologists who agreed. In May 2007, Morrow joined the sailing team. Of the team’s nearly 20 disabled athletes, many have spinal cord injuries and about half the members use wheelchairs. “Morrow has been more of a physical and emotional support to the athletes than anyone anticipated,” shares Betsy. “Physically, Morrow picks up out of reach items, carries athlete bags and gear, and even assists with docking the boats by bringing fenders to the sailors. Emotionally, Morrow has been a training constant for the athletes who must often travel away from home, leaving their support systems to attend camps and competition.” Thanks to his training at Canine Companions, Morrow is a constant professional. He is unperturbed by common sounds aboard the coach boat. Air horns, whistles, wave action or shouted greetings from other boats don’t distract him in the slightest.

Two Heroes. In 2011, U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Brian Boone was on tour in Afghanistan when he was struck by an improvised explosive device (IED). He was lucky to survive, but lost his leg below the knee and sustained injuries to his back. During his recovery, he met a fellow wounded veteran with a Canine Companions service dog. Brian realized the positive impact a service dog could have on his back and his life. “I really needed a dog to help pick things up. I struggle to bend over and knew a Canine Companions service dog could save me from a lot of pain,” says Brian. In September 2014, Brian was matched with Brindle, a yellow Labrador and Golden Retriever cross, trained by Canine Companions and provided entirely free of charge. Brian and Brindle were one of four teams matched in the inaugural class at Canine Companions South Central Region. “I felt an immediate connection with Brindle,” explains Brian. Brindle is a character and adds a whole element of excitement to the Boone household. Brian’s son, who has autism, loves Brindle. Brindle goes everywhere with Brian and even helps by retrieving Brian’s’ prosthetic leg or grabbing his own leash. He is attuned to Brian’s every need. “I didn’t realize at first how much a dog would be able to help me, but he is so well trained,” Brian says. “He has really changed my life.” U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Brian Boone and Service Dog Brindle 118 dogs serving veterans since 1975 36 Army 20 Marine Corps 19 Navy 21 Air Force 22 Other or multiple branches EXCEPTIONAL DOGS FOR EXCEPTIONAL PEOPLE® | CCI.ORG 11 12 CANINE COMPANIONS FOR INDEPENDENCE® | CCI.ORG A Dog is Man’s Best Friend A cover photo on a Life magazine over 20 years ago captured Anne Gittinger’s attention. “A one-page article inside that magazine warmed my heart,” recalls Anne. “The magazine article motivated me to make a small donation and the subsequent years of support just evolved.” Anne and her late husband Wayne’s generosity of time and funds built Gittinger Hall and Gittinger Park at the Northwest Training Center and underwrote several Canine Companions galas year after year. Anne has provided leadership on the national board since 1994. “Wayne created the concept for Gittinger Park while waiting for me on campus when I was in board meetings,” shares Anne. “I am most proud of Gittinger Park and Gittinger Hall and what both of these projects provide for everyone there, people and dogs.” “It is not possible to list all we owe to Anne for her guidance and leadership, but it’s clear that many of our accomplishments and growth would not have happened without her,” says Paul Mundell, Canine Companions CEO. It has always been the matches between assistance dogs and people with disabilities that have inspired Anne and kept her commitment to Canine Companions strong. “The marriage between a dog and human partner is priceless,” says Anne. “It makes that recipient’s life full, allowing him or her to be more independent if possible. It allows for a fuller and more meaningful life. The adage, ‘a dog is man’s best friend’ is true. The union brings dedicated love and life enrichment, which is irreplaceable.” “Listen to our stories, visit a campus and get to know the wonderful, hard working staff,” says Anne. “You’ll realize that the work being done enriches the lives of those in need in such a special way.” Donors by the Numbers • • • 27,600 DONORS 34% NEW DONORS 1,132 MIRACLE MAKERS: A record-breaking number of monthly supporters. • 69% OF RETURNING DONORS: Maintained or increased their level of giving this year.

Erin grew up in a household that included a pet toucan, six parrots, a spider monkey, a squirrel, a three-toed sloth, two dogs, two kittens and even a coatimundi, all living under one roof. She also has been able to live in Europe, Central America and all over the United States, the advantage of being a military brat and military wife. “Let’s just say my idea of ‘normal’ was compromised at a young age—in a good way!” laughs Erin. Erin first heard about Canine Companions while living in Davis, California in 2012. “After talking with my then 15-year-old daughter, we decided to raise a puppy together. We thought it would be a great way to share a really special experience with the end result, hopefully, being that we could improve someone’s life.” Erin loved watching Maggie grow and learn while raising their first puppy, Luna V. “I was so proud of her; doing this to benefit someone she hadn’t even met. Maggie is a better person because of it.” Now raising their second puppy, Kastner, they will be sending Kastner off to professional training at Canine Companions in August 2015. “I keep telling Maggie, who is now 17-years-old and soon ready for college, that I have to turn Kastner in and then a week later I have to turn her in too. Surprisingly, she doesn’t like the phrase ‘turning in’ when I refer to her going to college,” laughs Erin. Erin knows it will be hard to say goodbye to Kastner, especially with Maggie leaving soon afterwards, but then she remembers the moment of handing over Luna’s leash at a Canine Companions graduation. “Seeing the dog I raised standing proudly with her new partner, Steve, was worth every bit of love, time and effort I put into raising her,” explains Erin. “It was one of the greatest moments in my life.” Erin with her second Canine Companions puppy, Kastner, and pet dog, Tex.
