Pairing the two makes for a win-win situation. These shelter dogs are especially trained to handle the discomfort that has been thrust upon the veteran. The veteran selflessly served their country amongst many dangers. Man’s best friend now selflessly serves their veteran, helping them see...that all is not lost. That hope still abounds!! —Victor L., Marine Veteran“Superheroes indeed!
