SCK9’s Annual Fundraiser Range Day

Shoot, learn, and make a life-changing impact for our nation’s heroes.

Event Summary: Special Operations Forces (SOF) veterans face disproportionately high rates of combat-related trauma, PTSD, and TBI. SCK9 was founded to provide a vital lifeline to these heroes: pairing them with psychiatric service dogs, essential gear, and dedicated handler training—at zero cost to the qualifying veteran. Your participation in our Annual Fundraiser Range Day directly funds this life-changing mission.

Join SCK9 at the state-of-the-art Royal Range USA, Nashville’s only NSSF Five-Star facility, for an exclusive, action-packed experience. It’s not just a range day; it's a rare opportunity to shoot, learn, and be mentored directly alongside active and retired Special Forces (Green Berets), and other members of the Special Operations community.

Why Your Support Matters

While program-trained psychiatric service dogs typically cost between $25,000 and $30,000, SCK9 ensures this life-saving support is provided to our SOF veterans at zero cost. By rescuing military-breed dogs from shelters and training them to performing custom trauma-mitigation tasks, SCK9 gives both a highly intelligent rescue dog and a veteran a true second chance.

By rescuing military-breed dogs (Belgian Malinois, German Shepherds, and Dutch Shepherds) from shelters and paired-training them to perform custom trauma-mitigation tasks, SCK9 gives both a dog and a veteran a second chance at life.
