Mission

Our organization saves dogs from euthanasia in shelters enrolls them in our Obedience Training Program and upon passing the Good Canine Citizen Test offers them to local veterans as Companion Pets. The select few with suitable temperaments undergo Service Dog Training and are then partnered with local veterans at zero cost. Additionally we offer veterinary assistance to veterans who require support in caring for their canine companions but lack the financial means to do so. We introduced a Battle Buddies Program for Veterans who own a dog. Program encourages bonding and wellness exercises to help with PTSD. We are also working to start a Prison Dog Training Program where our dogs will be trained by the inmates and then donated to Veterans as Companion Emotional Support PTSD Service dogs.

Program accomplishments

  • Veteran Owned Dog Training. We were able to add 30 Veterans and their dogs into our training program. These dogs will go through the Foundational Obedience Training until they can pass their Canine Good Citizen Test. Those with the proper temperament will go on to Service Dog Training and pass the Public Access Test. They receive a starter package which includes leashes collars dog bowls treat bags treats dog food crates.
  • Veterinary Support for Veteran Owned Dogs. We were able to participate in 3 Stand Downs where we provided vet checks vaccines and flea tick treatment for over 63 dogs. We also paid for surgeries heartworm medications vaccines for 8 Veteran Owned Dogs as part of our Obedience Training Program for Veteran Owned Dogs for those who need that support.
