About
Tallman Family Foundation

Our values
We founded the Tallman Family Foundation (formerly the Embark Foundation) after seeing a growing need for assistance dogs in our communities. Our mission is to empower individuals in need by providing them with expertly trained SERVICE DOGS. Every wag, playdate, and training session directly supports this mission by funding the raising, training, and placement of these incredible animals with individuals in need.
PASSION
Our work is fueled by a deep love for what we do and a drive to make a lasting, positive impact in our community and beyond.
CONNECTION
We facilitate transformative connections — raising, training and matching dogs with their furever partners.
QUALITY
We prioritize compassionate care and training so our dogs can make a profound difference in the lives they touch.
