Michelle U.
& Sarge
“Service dogs change lives. I am no longer taking any anxiety medication—-I strictly rely on him. We are a team, and I can’t imagine going anywhere without him. My life has changed for the better.”
“When I first met Jake, I absolutely knew he was the dog for me! I truly believe that having Jake in my life has not only improved my mental and physical status but also saved my life.”
“Smoke was trained to push those heavy doors open and hold them open for me. He walks beside me and if I start to lose my balance, he braces me. If I actually fall, he gets under me and does not let me hit the ground—no more concussions!”
Sherman was a faithful companion throughout the last years of Stephen’s life, helping him overcome nightmares and other PTSD symptoms stemming from Stephen’s service in Vietnam.
