Four dogs that were trained by Nevada prisoners went home Sunday with veterans who could use their help.

The Pups, Prisoners & Patriots program, which was started in April 2018, rescues dogs that are scheduled to be euthanized at shelters and takes them to Lovelock Correctional Center in Northern Nevada, program director Diane Meier said Sunday.

On Sunday, the program handed the dogs off to four veterans at Aliante Animal Hospital, 3310 Elkhorn Road, in North Las Vegas.

About 20 inmates at the prison volunteer to train the dogs for about three months, teaching them basic commands such as “sit,” “stay” and “lie down.” The dogs live with the inmates 24/7, even sleeping with them in their cells, said Lovelock Warden Renee Baker.

    It is really great thing for Nevada Veterans to improve the performance of their agency. It is hard to train the dogs and pretty hard to teach them the tactics. I find essay writing service online for all my educational papers which done me great job by providing well written papers.
