March 2015 Meet Dennis Thompson, a man who served for our freedom, and is overcoming PTSD. Meet his new bestfriend our service Dog "Athena" provided to him by Jason McKie Foundation and Sgt. John M. Penich Memorial. We will be providing updates on Dennis and Athena's journey monthly!! Dennis and Athena have been working hard, as well as playing hard, and are well on their way to being a powerful PTSD service dog team! Although fetch and tug-a-war may seem like small things, they actually make a big impact in the long run. Play-time is a special bonding experience between dog and owner, and is especially important in helping build the relationship between service dog and handler! Thank You to all of our Supporters, Sponsors, and Donors for making this union possible. A special thanks to Southland Dog Training for the great training of Athena. |
