Canine Companions Veterans Program
Army veteran, 2003-2008, Robert Garlick will share his story. Deployed to Iraq in 2005-2006, he was almost killed twice in mortar attacks and witnessed a vehicle IED at a base gate. In denial for over a decade that he suffered from PTS, learn how Rob and Canine Companions dog Fritter are writing a new chapter in life. Canine Companions places service dogs with military veterans and veterans with disabilities entirely free of charge. With the increase in military veterans returning with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), Canine Companions launched a program in 2018 to directly place service dogs with veterans with PTSD.
