This organization rescues abandoned dogs from shelters and trains them to become certified service dogs for Veterans suffering from disabilities such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) , traumatic brain injury (TBI), military sexual trauma (MST), depression and anxiety. They teach classes, both group and private, ensuring the Veteran's and dog's safety, creating a bond between the Veteran and their dog and giving them the confidence and freedom to live a life that they both deserve.
