This year, ICAN proudly recognizes Harwell Gray Legal Defense as the presenting sponsor of Puppy Love Valentines 2026.
All proceeds support ICAN, Indiana’s only accredited service dog organization. ICAN pairs highly trained service dogs with children, adults, and Veterans living with disabilities—empowering them with greater independence and confidence.
Each dog undergoes a rigorous two‑year training program, much of it led by incarcerated individuals at three Indiana correctional facilities. This unique model transforms lives on both ends of the leash, offering purpose, skill‑building, and hope for the handlers who help train the dogs.
With the cost of training a single service dog exceeding $30,000, ICAN relies solely on private donations, charitable foundations, and community fundraisers such as Puppy Love Valentines to ensure more Hoosiers with disabilities receive the support they deserve.
