Tell us how your dog is helping you continue Still Serving in your community.

I sat in my basement for years because I couldn’t connect to people like I used to. I was also a police officer before and after the military. Just being greeted with smiles all the time with Huckleberry changed everything. My dog made me cool by association at the other end of the leash.

Why do you do it?

I went through 23 doctors and counselors ove a 20 year period. I thought it was time to try something different and along came This Able Veteran (TAV), they changed my life for the better by providing g me with Huckleberry. I’ll be forever grateful!
