The Veteran Service Dogs program is one that has been designed to provide dogs to candidates living with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. We have seen substantial success placing dogs with servicemen and women whose PTSD prevented them from returning to their previously active lifestyle.
These dogs help prevent or combat emotional overload using on-command tactile stimulation, assist the veteran in leaving/exiting anxiety-causing situations or locations, and provide tactile stimulation/mediation/sensory reintegration and orientation to time/place during dissociative episodes — all while offering their unconditional support and unceasing handler focus
