Below is our active roster — service dogs in training to be matched with veterans! This is just our active roster, as over $1.7M has been funded to match veterans to service dogs since 2018.

One of the smallest labradoodles ever in the program — and one of the mightiest. Eddie has already accomplished everything asked of him, including a nightmare-interruption task he performs to perfection.

He's been working with several potential matches while we find the right bond. Training now includes off-campus hours at our local 911 center, where he helps mitigate daily stressors for dispatchers — sharpening his instincts for the veteran he'll eventually serve.

Caldwell is well on his way with his commands. Last month he began working with clients — all male veterans — and recently started working with an Army Ranger.

The early signs are strong: they've begun the Level 1 matching process and the two are working well together. We believe this is a match in the making.

Shadow is making great strides in obedience and continues to build a strong, steady foundation. He's growing in confidence in new environments and is doing everything he can to prepare for his future veteran handler.

Max and Joseph trained side-by-side for eight months before graduating together in October 2025. Now fully trained and paired, Max is on call 24/7 — helping Joseph navigate whatever the day asks of him.

On the hardest days, Max is there first. That's the mission, delivered.
