Service Dogs, Inc.

Saving Dogs. Changing Lives. Since 1988.

Since 1988, we've changed how Service Dogs are trained - we use shelter dogs instead of breeding, we train with love and respect instead of force, and we provide the dogs completely free of charge to our clients.

Huge thanks to Petco Love for their $10,000 contribution to support the training of our next class of First Responder Facility Dogs. Community partners like Petco Love make it possible to sustain our 38-year mission of transforming lives at both ends of the leash.

Our First Responder Facility Dog program supports resiliency for the heroes who shoulder the burden of traumatic events and face su***de rates 50% higher than the general population.

This Veterans Day, and every day, we honor the heroes who served our nation.

For 37 years, SDI has provided Service Dogs to veterans free of charge to help them reclaim their independence, like US Air Force Veteran Julian Rodriguez. Hearing Dog Camaro alerts Julian by touch and leads him to essential everyday sounds like his phone, doorbell, oven timer, and most importantly, his two young children calling for their father.

You can support our mission to help more veterans like Julian by attending our largest annual fundraiser, the 25th Annual Mighty Texas Dog Walk & Expo, Sat. Nov. 22, at Camp Mabry: www.mightytexasdogwalk.org or making a donation at www.servicedogs.org
