Boilerplate
Determined to end veteran suicide, K9s For Warriors is the nation’s largest provider of trained Service Dogs to military veterans suffering from PTSD, traumatic brain injury and/or military sexual trauma. With most dogs coming from high-kill rescue shelters, this innovative program allows the K9/Warrior team to build an unwavering bond that facilitates their collective healing and recovery. This treatment method is backed by scientific research (from Purdue University’s OHAIRE Lab) demonstrating Service Dogs’ ability to help mitigate their veteran’s symptoms of PTSD while simultaneously restoring their confidence and independence. Founded in 2011 as a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization, K9s For Warriors remains committed to bringing widespread awareness to veterans’ mental health and contributing to policy-level reform.
K9s For Warriors’ facilities include: K9s For Warriors National Headquarters (Ponte Vedra, Fla.,) Davis Family Mega Kennel (Ponte Vedra, Fla.,) Gold Family Campus (Alachua, Fla.,) Petco Foundation K9 Center (San Antonio, Texas,) and K9s For Warriors at Heidi’s Village (Phoenix, Az).
