A Message From our Friends at Bayer…
Shelter dogs becoming service dogs
K9s For Warriors trains shelter dogs to become service dogs for veterans suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). A study they did with Purdue University’s College of Veterinary Medicine suggests that veterans show fewer symptoms of PTSD compared to veterans without a service dog. These shelter dogs are saving veterans’ lives! Learn about the study.
