Cell dog (original) (raw)
A cell dog is a rescue dog that is being housed with a prison inmate, with the goal of improving the lives of both. Through intensive training, prison inmates are able to transform a homeless, abused, or neglected dog into a service animal. The founder of the cell dog program was a Dominican nun named Sister Pauline Quinn. Starting in Washington state in the 1990s, the program soon took off, spreading to over two hundred prisons across the United States. Quinn's idea has spread internationally helping inmates and at risk dogs around the world.
