Default Service Dogs for Veterans

Good news from our neighbours to the South. Good news for their veterans . . . and for their homeless dogs!

Once in a blue moon they get it right, or do something for the good and not to further their own causes. This is one of those times.
They're right about the service-bred dogs costing $50K to breed, raise and train. A friend of mine used to breed labs for SEGDI and the time and effort that goes into training these dogs is incredible. Sookster knows from her own personal experience.
