Review for Labs For Liberty, Hill City, SD, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I was connected with L4L through a donation made to them. One of the labs 'Lyon' was donated in honor of my brother Marine Corps SSgt David Lyon, who died from his injuries sustained in Afghanistan. David had a service dog from the VA after loosing his legs, so I already had seen first hand how much help could be given by a service animal. L4L contacted me sometime later, one of my sisters reached out to them in hopes to help me deal with problems from my own time in the Corps. I was hesitant at the beginning but after meeting with another veteran and his dog, asking a thousand questions, and seeing his dog work for him, I could tell it was only going to make things better.

Labs for Liberty has truly changed my life. My boys and I have felt the positive impact of my lab since the moment we met Moose at the start of his training. We were able to be involved from the beginning; seeing updates on education and growth, as well as meeting with our selfless trainers (Chris and Nichole) to talk about everything I needed Moose to do. It astonishes me still that there are volunteers that dedicate themselves to the selection, care, and training of these dogs just for us. L4L is family now and the more time I spent with the foundation the more I met person after person who's life had been changed by the Nold family/professionals at L4L, and the Dogs they trained.
