Join us Tuesday to hear from Dr. Jennifer Cattet, the Founder and CEO of Medical Mutts Service Dogs. Dr. Cattet, alongside her husband Jack Topham, founded the organization in 2013 with a shared vision to make a positive impact on the lives of individuals with disabilities and shelter dogs in need.

With unwavering dedication and a passion for helping others, they embarked on a mission to train rescued dogs to become service dogs. Through science, education, and ethical training methods, Medical Mutts works to foster a deep collaboration between dogs and the people they serve.

Medical Mutts was awarded a $25,000 Community Grant by the Indianapolis Rotary Foundation this past December. Dr. Cattet will share how these funds are being utilized to train more dogs, furthering their mission and transforming the lives of the humans they are paired with.
