Hearing Dog Program- Discontinued
The SF SPCA, at a fund-raising event marking its 140th anniversary, lionized its Hearing Dog Program, which trained service animals to assist hearing-impaired persons. The next day, the program was shut down without any prior notice to the staff, volunteers, or community that depended on this service. The reason given for the abrupt closure of the Hearing Dog Program was "lack of funds." At about this same time, the SF-SPCA gave its new president a low-interest loan of $500,000 to help her buy a house in Marin County.
