Erika, I think it is great that you want to help this puppy. How did you find out about him? What kind of puppy is he? What organization do you train for? If you are going to be training this dog to be a disability dog, your organization should be able to fund the transportaion of the dog. Have you met the dog yet? Do you know that it has the right temprement to be a service dog?

Are you sure that once ou get it to your house, your organization can sponsor the dog to be trained. Training a service dog, as you probably already know, is expensive. Can you afford to take care of the dog if the organization says it won't train him?

You have a lot to consider before taking on something like this.

Maybe you could give us more information.
