Assistance Dogs Australia (ADA) is a national charity that breeds, trains and matches Assistance Dogs with people with physical disabilities, PTSD, and autism. ADA accreditation meets international standards and is one of a small number of organisations in Australia to meet these criteria in training excellence.  Assistance Dogs are a support mechanism for people with disabilities. By having an assistance dog by their side or access to an assistance dog through a partnership program, people with disabilities are able to experience increased connection, inclusion and independence.  The dogs bred by Assistance Dogs Australia spend the first 12 months with a volunteer puppy carer who socialises and sets the foundations for the puppies to move into advanced training where they spend 2 years learning over 50 specialised skills before they are matched with a person in need.  It costs over $60,000 to train and accredit an Assistance Dog. They are placed with clients free of charge and can provide up to 8 years of life-changing support. During this time our clients are offered ongoing care and support from the Assistance Dogs Australia team
