Puppies Behind Bars
Puppies Behind Bars is a nonprofit organization focused on providing human services. It is based in New York, NY. It received its nonprofit status in 1997.
Puppies Behind Bars (PBB) trains prison inmates to raise service dogs for wounded war veterans and first responders, as well as explosive-detection canines for law enforcement. Puppies enter prison at the age of 8 weeks and live with their inmate puppy-raisers for approximately 24 months. As the puppies mature into well-loved, well-behaved dogs, their raisers learn what it means to contribute to society rather than take from it.
