Service Dogs Helping Veterans

Canine Companions for Independence (CCI) is doing some great things we can feel good about!

Founded in 1975, it is the largest non-profit provider of assistance dogs in the United States.  They provide training and follow-up services for free.  FREE, we said.

And now they’ve partnered with PetSmart to create the Canine Companions Wounded Veterans Initiative, aka, PetSmart for Patriots.
