  • 🌟 Team Update! 🌟 We’re thrilled to share an exciting milestone for Alicen and her psychiatric service dog, Maisie! For the very first time, Alicen was able to go to the pharmacy on her own… well, not exactly on her own, because Maisie was by her side every step of the way! 🐾💙 Maisie has been a true support to Alicen, and together, they’ve been tackling new challenges with confidence and teamwork. It’s moments like these that remind us of the incredible bond between a handler and their service dog. We couldn’t be prouder of their#newmilestones To learn about our service dogs, visit: https://lnkd.in/gey_V9MB #TeamWork #ServiceDogJourney #PsychiatricServiceDog #AlicenAndMaisie #ServiceDogSuccess #NewMilestones

  • 🐾 Meet Miles (formerly Willis), who’s making great strides in his training! In these pictures, Jordan is helping Miles feel more comfortable with the crate. Each time Miles goes in and out of the crate, he gets rewarded with praise and treats! This simple yet powerful training technique helps him build confidence and creates positive associations with the crate through repetition. 💙 We're so proud of Miles’ progress and can't wait to see him continue to thrive! Miles came to us from The Animal Protection League Inc., Indiana .

  • 🌟 It’s Giving Tuesday! Help Us Train Life-Changing Dogs Like Wrangler 🐾 Today is the day to make a difference! 💙 This Giving Tuesday, we're spotlighting Paula and her service dog, Wrangler, as they practice an essential skill: retrieving objects. Wrangler is learning how to carefully pick up items like a bag of medication or medical equipment. By grabbing the strap, he ensures nothing fragile inside is damaged. Skills like these can be life-saving for our clients and empower them to live more independently. Your support helps us train dogs like Wrangler to provide critical assistance to people in need. With your donation, you’re not just helping train service dogs—you’re creating partnerships that transform lives. 🦴 🐾 Join us this Giving Tuesday! Together, we can bring hope, independence, and wagging tails to even more people.

  • Today is Giving Tuesday! Meet Paula and Wrangler, a story of hope and transformation. Paula faces seizures and loss of balance daily, but her life changed when she met Wrangler. This incredible dog, rescued from Shelby County Humane Society, was trained to alert Paula to her seizures—and he started alerting within the first hour of being by her side. Wrangler is more than a service dog; he’s Paula’s lifeline, giving her safety, independence, and peace of mind. This Giving Tuesday, you can be the reason more stories like Paula and Wrangler’s become possible. Your donation helps us rescue and train dogs like Wrangler to change lives. Watch Paula share her story and see the impact of your support in action. Together, we can transform lives—one dog, one person, one partnership at a time. Donate today and be part of the mission: https://lnkd.in/gN27FwdN #GivingTuesday #RescueToService #LifeChangingBonds
