Service dogs provide numerous benefits to veterans and first responders, including:

Emotional Support

Service dogs offer companionship and emotional support, which can help alleviate symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and anxiety.

Sense of Security

Service dogs are trained to alert their handlers to potential threats or triggers, providing a sense of security and safety, especially in crowded or unfamiliar environments.

Assistance with Mobility

Many service dogs are trained to assist individuals with mobility impairments by retrieving objects, opening doors, or providing stability while walking.

Coping with Nightmares and Flashbacks

Service dogs can be trained to wake their handlers during nightmares or flashbacks, helping to interrupt and mitigate these distressing experiences.

Encouragement for Social Interaction

Service dogs can serve as a bridge for social interaction, helping veterans and first responders feel more comfortable in public settings and reducing feelings of isolation.

Physical Activity and Exercise

Increased Independence

Improved Quality of Life
