SERVICE DOGS

Apply for a Service Dog, Amputee Resources,

and meet our Service Dogs.

Our Service Dogs work incredibly hard to ensure their Veteran remains actively outdoors and constantly happy for years to come.

 

Each Service Dog we train is placed to perform a specialized task tailored to their Veteran.

 

Unlike other organizations, there is a minimum standard we establish to ensure that our Service Dogs and Veterans thrive together. 

Meet our Service Dogs below who have graduated from our program and are available to be paired.

Why is our program different from other service dog organizations?

The Warriors Choice Foundation provides access to the incomparable Focused Cognitive K9 Rehabilitation (FCKR) program, which since 2018 has fast-tracked the process for combat veterans needing a service dog.

 

This program provides an in-house breed & train, and remote training program. Our program focuses on getting combat veterans in need of a service dog through their own drive to want change.
