you are right I fully support you this to be introduced nation wide

So important what the one inmate said, that it gives the inmates the experience of being kind. And experiencing unconditional love & no judgement. That's just incredible. I'm just crying halfway through this. Amazing.

It's called rehabilitation... Something most Americans aren't in favor of-they're all about punishment. Never mind that this person is going to get out, the same-or worse probably... So even if they HATE the idea that convicts get an education in jail or whatever it may be, hello fuckwads, it benefits you that you have people coming out of prison who may become productive citizens rather than getting back to their own ways. But... Americans. They can't take it. That someone would get schooling or education of any sort. Or Republicans, rather. Or mostly. They're the worst. And the stupidest.

this is one of the best way to give the dog and the inmate a better chance, these inmates maybe never had the chance to love some animal, this will make these men more caring people loving person.

Hahge Hahge agreed this is not only improving moral which reduces fights and violence but also refabilitates the inmates while also giving the dog a second chance even san antonio prison should do this

Helping doomed dogs and inmates at the same time. Way to go America - good job.

This has got to be one of the best methods of rehabilitation methods for inmates. Dogs truly are man's best friend, taking these damaged/ broken (for whatever reason) prisoners, and giving them a new look out in life. Much love to all involved.

It's such a win-win! Both for the inmates and the goggies! Guess, when they're trying to adopt out those dogs, if they knowing how to do those tricks-shaking paw, rolling over,-are going to be a big hit with potential adopters! While being bittersweet for the handler when 'their' dog gets adopted, it must must be so satisfying and give a sense of pride that he's transformed this dog, from an unadoptable case, into a dog that people lovingly welcome into their home.

Awe the one inmate that had gone a week without a dog to train looked like a new daddy waiting for his dog to train.

4:13 "it's good for the soul" sums it all up.

Once I started owning cats and dogs I notice I became more lighthearted around other people. This is a brilliant idea.

Awesome so happy to see positivity in this world we live in

Totally agree! Good outcomes for inmates and the dogs. Excellent work of this Jail Dog Program.

Your not just saving these dogs. In a way, your also saving the inmates too.

Such a wonderful program. I am so glad the sheriff and community had to foresight to bring this into the jail.

like the inmate said its good for the dog and the soul.

What a brilliant program,saving the life of an unloved dog and saving the world of an unloved person! brilliant everyone's a winner.

I believe that animals can change human hearts (including behaviors and emotions), This is a great program, and i think it will also give inmates to build responsibility.. good for dogs=good for inmates. who knows? when they come out of jail, they can be a VET!

What a wonderful programme. I would like to see a jail dogs programme running in prisons in the UK.

Giving both prisoners and dogs a second chance, they get affection and something to care for, can’t get better than that! ♥️👏☺️

This is great. There are no prisoners in this program, there are just people who love animals. This program works on many levels so well done.

This is so inspiring...giving and receiving love from both dogs and guys serving time!

So incredible. Both humans and animals getting another chance to love. Dogs are man’s best friend!

IF there is no tax money involved and there is an abundance of shelter dogs to train as well as prisoners to train them, why aren't programs like this in more prisons/jails?? Even if they end up not being able to find a "forever home" for the dog after the prisoner trains her/him the prisoner can just keep the dog as a pet. There would be the cost of food and maybe dog toys, but still, compared to a lot of other prison programs that are more expensive and ineffective a program like this would come at a relatively low cost. Doesn't make sense to me. The only reason I can think of why they wouldn't want this program adopted in more correctional facilities is the prison industrial complex.

I did a stint as a volunteer at (the city's) Animal Care & Control in NYC, and boy was the shelter overrun with pitbulls. I swear 50% at least were pitbulls, and I imagine it's probably the same at a lot of shelters. And they're so sweet! And they're dying for attention. But it's just one after another... Why pick this one or that one? And they tend to -really-not walk well on the leash (read: pull). Still, they're wonderful dogs! So if some of them had a chance to come into a program like this? With someone who has the time and patience to train them how to walk on a leash! And do some cute tricks! (People looove that-for a reason! It's qte.) A beautiful thing, and a huge bonus for both parts, inmate and doggie.

0:02 OMG it melts my heart💟

Power of pure love dog and human🙏💗🐶👼

I just love seeing these programs for people incarcerated.

amazing program. Positive Therapy for both the dogs and the inmates. awesome

This makes my heart soar! I think all jails in USA should do this!

This deserves more attention. I love this so much!

To the Swinnet county sheriff's department.brilliant idea,just brilliant,keep up the momentum.david UK

I am commited to protest this around the country if we could all try! This saves the lives of the animals and possibly the inmates. Very inspiring.

Such an amazing program. :D Other jails should do something like this, too.

great idea about these dogs in jaills I been in jail before so I'm agree. stress wud go away with these dogs that also need a second chance

This is a wonderful programme - a win-win situation. The Dog's are re-habilitated and shown love and affection - the inmates are given a big responsibility in caring for and training the Dog's and they in return are shown un-conditional love. When we feel sad or upset and in need of comfort there is nothing more honest than your Dog knowing how you feel and will be there for you to be hugged. Man's best friend will always be there for you no matter what you've done.

These programs, and there are many: which pair up a prisoner, with a dog, and let them bond, and the inmate learns to prepare this dog for a future life. It is touching: saves the dogs, and also changes the lives of these 'lost' men, I think in many cases, forever..

Its nice to have dogs as pets! I used to have a black chow named " knight" my dog was more then just my pet he was my little brother who've I've always played with as a child and as a adult until his passing in October 2011 I miss my little chow RIP knight 1995-2011

A very good program for both dogs and inmates.

God bless I agree all prisons should do this.

I love the videos, please keep posting. They should have these programs in all prisons around the country...very inspirational.

What a great and positive program for these prisoners. Some of them are understanding for the first time what unconditional love really is. Wonderful benefits for both dog and new trainer!! This should be a regular program in all jails.

What a great idea , helps the dogs & the prisoners

AMAZING. That sheriff is one great man.

One of the most wonderful ideas I can think of. Please consider this for all shelter animals/prisons.

this program should be accepted into every jail - at the very least it is providing new positive skills to the inmates for potentially totally different career when released..

dogs are good for the soul! how right he is!

Freaking awesome program! I love hearing about programs like this to help rehabilitate prisoners, especially non-violent ones.

MEGA KUDOS to All involved in this and similar programs!!!! These AMAZING programs are Sorely Needed in ALL of our jails and prisons!!!!! SAVING Dogs, People And Money? !? What is the.Holdup?

Totally agree this is a "win win" situation. Bless you!

I think this is one of the best rehabilitation programs ever to be created. I think more prisons should offer this rehabilitation program. Good for people and good for the animals its a win win situation. Keep up the good work to everyone involved inc inmate's.

I think this a great second chance for the animals and inmate. Keep up the Great work, you are making a difference in these dogs life, Thank You for caring

oh my God ever introduced this program will be blessed this will bring relief both inmate and the dogs and I pray this to bring happy ending for them.the way they train and the love they give to dogs is so touching.

this is a win win situation for all parties involve. Even when Prisoners reaches the end of their training & part ways with their dogs, it teaches them to let go, accept, deal & see the good in their hard work, satisfaction

This is quite genius! What a great program. :)

How sweet!

I hope all jails will adopt this program...its a win/win stiuation

This is an amazing program!

Thank you Amy J. There is also a HUGE need for some of these dogs with specific gifts to be put to an even higher calling. Dogs with therapy dog potential could be trained up as therapy dogs (for people with mental illness, life threatening medical conditions (alert dogs), PTSD, autism dogs, and dogs to stay with those who have dementia, or are dying alone in nursing homes, and of course permanent prison dogs on every ward (privileges). It is also of paramount importance and urgency that these dogs stories are presented carefully in age appropriate ways to young children to develop children’s empathy. (Ethics classes do this to some extent in Australian government schools) .Education ! education! education! at home and at school. Perhaps broadcast on kids TV, playschool, kids film festivals, public announcement TV and on computers (instead of an add or two!) so that the children of the future will be aware of vet care; de sexing animals; not buying from Pet shops who are fronts for puppy cat mills www.oscarslaw.org/ • Abolish the factory farming of companion animals. • Ban the sale of companion animals from pets shops/online trading sites. • Promote adoption through rescue groups/pounds/shelters. Animal rights and animal abuse issues. My suggestions for widespread education and empathy building would mean the tiny tots of today would be far less likely to let the cycle of abuse of any animals (including factory farming) happen in the future. Kind Regards, Sez Cardis

Great idea,this proram should be in every state. Saving shelter dogs and saving people in jail!!

AWESOME PROGRAM !!!!

Well done everyone !! a great deed indeed ...keep up the great work

great program! I've adopted 5 dogs and they're the best babies ever! 🐶

this is a great program.

this is amazing so happy &a great way to make the inmates re-connect with their good feelings

I love this so much!

This is absolutely wonderful!!!

Brilliant! 💖

This is the best programmout there

what a great program,i hope they do this for guys that will be released at some point,,it could change their outlook on life.

i love its great program

L'idée est vraiment superbe. This idea is very beautiful and sorry for my english . The prisonners it's a human people . Congratulation

The perfect program!

This is an absolutely AWESOME program, concept and idea. The poor animals just wanted someone to love and to feel loved.... and without any judgement, I know the men and women in these prisons, for whatever reason, feel the same way regardless.

Great program for both helping Dog and balancing for jail people

WOW!!! I LOVE IT!!! A program that helps BOTH animals & ESP inmates...WIN WIN, baaaby 😘😘😘😘😘

Wonderful... Wonder-Full :)

What a wonderful program. I saw this first on 'Pitbulls & Parolees'; I'm glad to see that its... somewhat widespread? A little bit? Because it's such a positive thing. When these guys get out they can become dog walkers ( a pretty good business!), which probably wouldn't even have occurred to them otherwise! And if not, they're coming out with a much more positive mindset-mostly because of having spent time with the dogs and learning how to train them, but also because they were given a chance by society. Compared to the attitude in the rest of the western world where rehabilitation is a big part of an inmates prison sentence , Americans seem to be *all* about punishment. Why should prisoners get 'free' education!? well, you just punish them, keep them in storage for a certain amount of time, what do you theink they'll be when you release them? More doggie programs for everyone. :)

wonderful program saves many lives hope to start this program in my future rescue

It's where I got my dog. She's amazing.

Which Jail Dog did you adopt?

Prison Pet Partners in Washington state. Great program.

This is such a necessary program for the dog and prisoner. Changes the life for both of them. Softens the heart and soul.

This is incredible. What an amazing idea! I love it. Whoever thought of this deserves a big, fat kiss! GOOD JOB!

Sheriff Conway, Finally someone with a brain to help both. You can't go wrong.. Good luck...

I think this is a wonderful idea I think it can help people to learn to be kinder people if they have a animal and r willing to give it the love then they will receive love back and maybe make them better people

Amazing ! Good all around, l love it.

Thank you for helping dogs and humans.

Awesome!!!

what an amazing idea !! :D

This is great! Respect.

Wonderful idea!! Everyone wins. I'll take the Sheriff and a dog please.

I've heard of these programs for a while. I wonder why ALL prisons don't have these programs?

Great program

So great!!!

Wonderful program!

This is so great! Thank you

A win-win: The dogs are trained and eventually adopted. The inmates learn a skill they can use on the outside so they become productive members of society.

how do you start a program like this. iwant to try to get all parts of the country to do this. thx.

This is a good program:inmates get reform Dogs get homes as their home

I think this is awe inspiring. Hopefully more jails and prisons should participate in this program. But what about those who have violent records? Don't you think that unconditional love an animal gives would also help those individuals? Ofcours non violent crimes against animals. I think cats would do great too in this kind of environment. I'm a big animal lover and I've also had a son in jail.

I love it!! What a great idea! Those dogs need the inmates and vice versa! It's a win win! It gives these inmates a positive thing to do during such a hard time for them, I think it gives them hope

Awesome program!

This is a very good program and i thank very much Alice to have put this video here I knew that a woman had make an almost same program to save abandonned dogs and had let them at prisonners women to give them for be dogs for handicaped humans... I can just applause for this other program, we can see in the 2 cases that it saves dogs but , it is very important, it help prisonners to have a different look of their futur, it gives to them a possibility to make good thinks after they will go out their prison... it is so beautifull really I really think that these programs would have to be in every countries... in first in my own country, France, but unfornutly i think that it wan't be impossible... Sorry for my bad englisg, i hope you will can understand what i wanted to say, but bravo, bravo, congretualitions for all persons in USA who can make this incridibule program real
