Today is #NationalRescueDogDay , which holds a special meaning to all of us at K9s For Warriors.
With the majority of our #ServiceDogs being rescued from shelters, today reflects the true meaning of a โnew leash on lifeโ for both the Dogs & the #Veterans K9s serves.
We know that going to the airport is not easy, especially for those with #PTSD . But with practice, the guidance of our #Warrior team members and their new #ServiceDogs , anything is possible.
A special thanks to TSA, San Antonio International Airport, & JAXairport for the training opportunity!
We are honored to join the Bob Woodruff Foundation Got Your 6 Network!
This opportunity helps us join forces with hundreds of VSO/MSO stakeholders. Together, we aim to collaborate on services that cater to over 20.6 million #Veterans and uniformed military personnel in communities nationwide.
We are excited to announce our newest member of the Troop G Family, Maggie. She is a 18 mo old black lab with an amazing vibe. Thank you K9s For Warriors and FHP Auxiliary for bringing her into our world. Maggieโs presence relieves the stresses of a first responders daily duties.
Today, we hosted a press conference to spotlight our Station Dog program in honor of #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth . The profound impact that station dogs have on first responders is truly miraculous.
Thanks to everyone who joined us in support of our mission!๐พ
This morning we recognized the incredible impact the K9s For Warriors station dog program has had in the workplace. Seeing our four-legged friends around the office never fails to brighten my day!
Our first responders have difficult jobs that can have a significant impact on their mental health. Itโs with that in mind that Iโm honored to recognize the Station Dog program created by K9s For Warriors. These wonderful emotional support dogs are trained to be a loving companion
