The renovations to its headquarters will help serve more clients with disabilities through custom-trained assistance dogs.

The improvements focus on five major areas: modernized training facilities, improved ADA accessibility, an upgraded veterinary clinic, a new Canine Village, and renovated breeding and foster puppy spaces.

Spanning 17,300 square feet, the new health center at 1113 West Superior St. is 75 percent larger than the former location, addressing the health needs of Wayland’s growing population.

The Chipping for Charity golf outing includes an 18-hole, four-person scramble with contests like longest putt, longest drive, and closest to the pin.

The first-ever Hats & Hounds fundraiser on May 14 will mix the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show and The Kentucky Derby.

Paws With A Cause, a Wayland-based nonprofit that custom-trains assistance dogs, announced the appointment of four new members to its board of directors.

Traditionally, foster puppies are placed in a single home for 14-15 months, but new co-raising and start/finish options allow raisers to host a puppy for a shorter time or during a specific time of year that works for them.
