Who We Are

K9s For Warriors is ending veteran suicide and returning our warriors to a life of dignity and independence. We rescue and train shelter dogs to be paired as Service Dogs for warriors with service-connected Post-Traumatic Stress, Traumatic Brain Injury and/or Military Sexual Trauma

What We Do

Our nonprofit provides PTSD service dogs of the highest quality at no cost to those in our program in order to help restore their physical and emotional independence.  Our focus is on healing - helping the veteran and paired service dog build a bond to facilitate healing and recovery.  As the healing takes place, the reintegration to society begins.  Warriors can return to their communities with a new “leash” on life as productive citizens who make a positive difference. After completing our three-week training program they have gained the emotional means to repair their relationship with themselves, their families and their friends.
