They are part of "Pawsitive Approach" from Guide Dogs of Texas.
"In 2000, Guide Dogs of Texas established a groundbreaking program, PAWSitive Approach, with the Dominguez State Jail in which non-violent offenders prepare puppies-in-training to be future guide dogs. The 8-week-old puppies live at the jail and are raised by a team of two offenders along with a Corrections Officer who socialize the pups and teach them basic obedience, good social manners, and perform daily grooming, which helps establish the important emotional bond between puppy and handler."
