Meet Team Tim 🐾

At Loyal Guardians Service Dog Training, we are honored to support those who have sacrificed so much in service to our country.

Today, we would like to introduce Team Tim.

Tim is a 100% disabled United States Army veteran who proudly served our nation during Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation New Dawn, and Operation Enduring Freedom. During his nine years of military service, Tim sustained multiple traumatic brain injuries and now lives with PTSD, conditions that continue to impact his daily life.

For years, Tim has relied on his trusted service dog, Odin, to help him navigate the challenges that come with these invisible injuries. Odin has been more than a companion—he has been a lifeline.

Odin assists Tim by:

* Alerting to neurological episodes
* Providing support during periods of anxiety and distress
* Guiding Tim to safety during emergencies
* Creating personal space and boundaries in crowded environments
* Seeking help if Tim experiences an emergency while alone

Because of Odin’s dedication, Tim has been able to maintain a level of independence, confidence, and safety that would otherwise be difficult to achieve.

As Odin approaches retirement, Tim faces a new challenge: preparing and training a successor service dog to ensure there is no gap in the support he relies on every day.

Our Goal

To provide Tim with a new service dog and the specialized training necessary to continue living a safe, independent, and fulfilling life.

Service dogs are highly trained medical assistance animals that require years of professional training, health testing, veterinary care, and ongoing support. This process represents a significant financial investment, but the impact can be truly life-changing.

Every donation, sponsorship, and share helps ensure Tim continues to have the support he needs as Odin transitions into retirement.

Meet Team Troy 🐾

At Loyal Guardians Service Dog Training, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to explore the world safely, confidently, and with the support they need to thrive.

We are honored to introduce Team Troy.

Troy is a remarkable 7-year-old boy who is nonverbal and lives with autism. Like many children with complex support needs, Troy experiences challenges related to communication, emotional regulation, sensory processing, and safety. While we cannot share all of the details of his journey, these challenges can make everyday activities and community involvement difficult for both Troy and his family.

Despite these obstacles, Troy’s family remains dedicated to helping him experience the world around him, build independence, and enjoy opportunities that many families often take for granted.

Their hope is simple:

To help Troy safely experience more freedom, confidence, and connection with the world around him.

A professionally trained service dog has the potential to provide life-changing support through:

* Increased safety and supervision
* Emotional regulation and calming support
* Deep Pressure Therapy and grounding
* Assistance during periods of sensory overload
* Confidence in public settings
* Greater participation in family and community activities
* Companionship and unconditional support

For Troy, a service dog is more than a companion—it is a bridge to greater independence, safety, and quality of life.

Because service dogs require years of specialized training and care, this journey represents a significant financial investment. Through the support of our community, we hope to make this life-changing partnership possible.

Tim is a 100% disabled veteran who served in Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation New Dawn, and Operation Enduring Freedom. After nine years in the U.S. Army, he sustained multiple brain injuries and lives with PTSD, which impact his daily life in significant ways.
For the past several years, Tim has relied on his service dog, Odin, to help manage these challenges. Odin alerts Tim to neurological episodes, helps him manage anxiety, guides him to safety in emergencies, creates boundaries in crowds, and seeks help if Tim is alone during an emergency. Unfortunately, Odin will need to retire in the next two years, and Tim needs a new service dog and training to ensure his continued safety and independence.
Your support will help cover the costs of the new service dog and its training. Thank you so much for your donation so Tim can live a fulfilling and healthy life.
