The dogs are young, only 8 weeks old and will start training to become a service dog next week through Susquehanna Service Dogs. If they pass their temperament test, they'll then be matched to people to raise them to become full-fledged service animals for people with mobility issues, WGAL reported.
They’ll live with the families who are raising them for about a year and a half before being evaluated and matched with a person in need of a service dog.
