Pawsitivity
Pawsitivity Service Dogs trains life-changing service dogs for our wounded warriors: U.S.military veterans. 100% of your donation will train service dogs for veterans.
Combat veteran Peter Bannon writes: “I trained with Pawsitivity Service Dogs in 2019 and received the trained service dog, Daniel, an adult black Labrador Retriever, to partner with in support of my PTSD received during combat in my service with the U.S. Army during OIF I and OEF VII.
Pawsitivity not only trained Daniel to meet my needs but trained me as well to work with Daniel, communicate with him, understand my rights and be a responsible and proactive service animal owner. Pawsitivity embodies all of the seven Army core values; especially honor, integrity and selfless service. They are some of the kindest, hardworking and generous folks I have ever had the pleasure of spending time with.
I enthusiastically recommend the 501(c)(3) nonprofit Pawsitivity Service Dogs to veterans who need a service dog.”

Service Dogs for Veterans
We work with wounded warriors (U.S. military veterans) with blindness, deafness, epilepsy, and PTSD. By partnering with a trained service dog, veterans gain independence, need less medication, and spend more time at school or work with fewer sick days. All service dogs for veterans are provided free of charge.
Family Dog Program
All dogs who "wash out" of the service dog program are donated to families who need a wonderful pet.
