With most dogs coming from high-kill rescue shelters, this innovative program allows the K9/Warrior team to build an unwavering bond that facilitates their collective healing and recovery. Each month, Veterans arrive at K9s For Warriors to take part in a three-week, in-house training program at no cost to Veterans. K9s For Warriors provides a trained Service Dog, housing, all meals, equipment, veterinary care, and training in a welcoming environment that provides essential peer-to-peer support. As the Service Dog is already trained prior to being paired with the Veteran, the three-week training period teaches the Veteran how to work with their Service Dog, and to facilitate the bonding necessary for the two to be a successful team. To date, K9s For Warriors has graduated more than 750 K9/Warrior teams and rescued 1,500 dogs.
'We are honored to become a part of the Beacon community in support of their efforts to raise awareness of Veteran assistance programs,' said K9s For Warriors CEO
