I was fortunate to visit their main facility in Brooksville, FL and was amazed at the service they provide for our wonderful veterans. I witnessed veterans and their service dogs being trained together in situational environments, becoming familiar with different scenarios like a doctor’s office, a grocery store, and other everyday environments. Training lasts for 6 months and is free to veterans.
