facility for service dog training

April 17, 2020

 The Mall of Fairfield Commons is offering their common area space inside the shopping center to the local nonprofit service dog organization, 4 Paws for Ability, for training each week. Volunteers with 4 Paws can typically be found in the mall throughout the year, walking and training their dogs so that they are able to graduate and join a family in need. The organization currently has several service puppies that need training, but during the COVID-19 outbreak, volunteers have lacked the public space to do so.

The Mall at Fairfield Commons welcomes the puppies and their volunteers to do training routines weekly within the common area of the center while it is temporarily closed.

In the midst of an unprecedented health situation, more than ever, The Mall at Fairfield Commons is embracing its role as a community partner by finding unique ways to transform its space for social good, the mall stated in a release.

“This 4 Paws for Ability training is part of our commitment to serving as a community resource and bringing the definition of Goodwill Ambassadors to life,” said Leanne Rubosky, General Manager of The Mall at Fairfield Commons in a written statement. “We are here to support each other during this difficult time for our community and our world.”

For more information on COVID-19 as it pertains to the Fairfield Commons, follow the mall on Instagram and Facebook.
