Serrano was raised and trained to provide life-changing independence to someone with a physical disability other than visual impairment or to work with a professional such as a teacher, psychologist or victim services worker to help support a healthy community. In November, 2022, Serrano took the next step in his journey and entered Advanced Training where he learned the skills needed to support his future partner.
In October, 2023, Serrano was paired with his partner, Christine, as an AFD-Justice with the Powell River Police Victim Services and together they work with all victims of crime and trauma, providing assistance, information and advocacy.
It truly takes a village to raise a puppy, and you can be part of Serrano’s village and receive monthly updates about him/her — donations raised through this page support the care and training of healthy, happy puppies. Help support Serrano today.
