Introducing Service Dogs UK
Service Dogs UK is the only accredited PTSD assistance dog charity in the UK. They provide Veterans from the Armed Forces and Emergency Services suffering with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder the benefit of specially trained psychiatric assistance dogs.
The dogs that are rescued are carefully selected to help the Veterans. They train the dogs to the highest standard, being a fully accredited member of Assistance Dogs International (ADI). Once a rescue dog has completed their basic training and assessment, the Veteran will be training their own partnered dog for a period of 9 - 12 months under the guidance of professional dog trainers. Veterans who have competed the programme tell Service Dogs Uk that the programme is a life changer! - They are honoured to be able to change lives, two at a time!
We are so incredibly moved by the work Service Dog UK provide to not only dogs but veterans too, they really are ‘saving lives, two at a time’! If you are interested in sponsoring a service dog you can do this from as little a £3 a month, to find out more visit www.servicedogsuk.org/support-us/sponsor-a-service-dog/
