22toZeroDogs

PATRIOTIC SERVICE DOG FOUNDATION was established to provide highly trained service dogs to those in need that can benefit from a service dog at no cost to the recipients, including but not limited to wounded service men and women of the United States Military Forces and First Responders. The proceeds from this shop will directly benefit the men and women in our program and the dogs we train for them. Did You Know? Today, an estimated 460,000 veterans from the Iraq and Afghanistan war alone, struggle with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). These conditions can lead to sleeplessness, depression, anger, anxiety and isolation. While these feelings can be overwhelmingly difficult, they are treatable, but so many continue to suffer in silence. Each day, in the world’s greatest nation, 22 of our heroes will take their own lives. The Patriotic Service Dog Foundation's goal is to reduce that statistic from “22 to Zero”. Why Shop? We are a nonprofit organization that is supported by the generosity of individuals, foundations, corporations and other organizations in our mission to provide highly trained service dogs at no cost to Veterans and First Responders who may benefit from long-term mental and physical assistance. The cost to provide one service dog and match it with its new veteran partner on average is $25,000. Your purchase is one way in which you can help us fulfill our mission and reflect your own personal desire to help Veterans and First Responders live more independently with the loyal assistance from a Patriotic Service Dog.
