This organization was started because my brother needed a PTSD Service Dog due to trauma from multiple combat deployments, other places were trying to rip him off so I called the ADA to find out the truth about service dogs. With my background running parts of the military's K9 program I trained his Service Dog. Sine then Alpha K9 had trained hundreds of Service Dogs for Veterans across the country including Canada. I love the dedication and relentless devotion to our mission from the staff and volunteers. Even if you do not need a Service Dog people should come by just to visit a place dedicated to integrity and doing the hard right over the easy wrong.
