PpaWWs Paws and people assisting Wounded Warriors
We do not provide fully trained dogs, but rather young dogs that have passed our temperament test, been house-trained, socialized and taught basic manners. Warriors participate in our 6 month program which focuses on a series of training stages and exercises for the Warrior/Dog team that both customizes the dog to the Warrior's needs as well as providing cognitive therapy for the Warrior.
We provide these dogs at NO COST to Wounded Warriors

TBI and PTSD are the “invisible wounds” that many of our Warriors will carry with them for life. Our dogs help to alleviate or at minimum help them cope with these wounds so they can live out their lives with more independence and confidence.
Please help us get this service dog, Nebula, to her Warrior, Michael Brown, by donating to their travel fund. Nebula is in Michigan. Michael is in Arkansas
