Saving lives at both ends of the leash Fund

Working Dogs for Vets

Working Dogs For Vets exists to save lives at both ends of the leash. Our mission is to provide disabled veterans with highly trained service dogs and accessible training programs that restore independence, reduce suicide risk, and support successful reintegration into civilian life. At the same time, we rescue dogs from overcrowded shelters—98% of our service dogs come from shelters—and give them a second chance as purpose‑trained partners. To meet the urgent needs of veterans and shelter dogs, WDFV has developed an innovative, scalable training model that trains both people and dogs through multiple integrated programs: Visit: https://www.workingdogsforvets.org/program-1 to learn more.
