Help Us Name Our Newest Future Service Dog! 🐾

We’re excited to introduce the newest member of our program! This is our newest Golden Retriever puppy who will one day become a life-changing service dog for a veteran in need. From providing emotional support to assisting with daily tasks, service dogs play a vital role in helping veterans regain independence and improve their quality of life.

Now, you have a special opportunity to be part of this journey from the very beginning.

For a limited time, we’re inviting our community to help name this future hero! When you make a donation to support our program, you’ll have the chance to submit a name suggestion for our new puppy. Your contribution will support the cost of training, care, and resources needed to prepare this dog for service.

How it works:

Make a donation of any amount to support our mission
Submit your name suggestion along with your contribution
On Sunday, April 5th, we will post a poll on Facebook of suggested names.
The name with the most votes by Friday, April 10th will win!

Every dollar raised goes toward training service dogs that are provided to veterans at no cost to them. Your support helps cover veterinary care, food, professional training, and all the essentials that go into raising a highly skilled service dog.

This is more than just naming a puppy, it’s helping shape the future of a veteran’s companion, partner, and lifeline.

Join us in making a difference! Submit your name and be part of something truly meaningful.

Donate today and help us give this puppy a name!
