About us
K9 Youth Alliance enriches the lives of youth from under-resourced communities, focusing on the socio-emotional growth of kids and shelter dogs. 👦🏾 👧🏻 🐶 We are a group of people who are passionate about the potential of the human-animal bond to: ➢ promote socio-emotional growth ➢ enhance opportunities for youth ➢ give homeless dogs the chance to live a happy life. In our 3-week programs, kids and dogs learn together with encouragement of our dedicated team members. We teach humane education and use rewards-based dog training as a model for promoting self-discovery and nonviolence. K9YA students enrich the lives of the dogs they work with by providing much-needed socialization, teaching basic behaviors and developing trusting relationships. K9YA dogs empower the youth they work with and help them understand the importance of empathy, clear communication and a positive outlook.

Meet Lola (formerly known as Blanca). Lola’s journey has taken a heartbreaking turn. After being adopted from our 2022 Positive Enrichment Series II program, she found a loving home. Unfortunately, her person is now gravely ill and unable to care for her. Lola is back in the shelter, confused and grieving, but still full of love. She needs your help to find her forever family. Lola deserves a second chance at happiness, and we are determined to make sure she gets it. Please share this post, and if you or someone you know can offer her the love and stability she needs, please reach out. Let’s give Lola the happy ending she so deeply deserves 💙 #NonProfit #HumanAnimalBond #ShelterDogs #DogTraining #LosAngeles #AdoptDontShop
