But wait… there’s two?! 👀🐾

That’s right! Please help us welcome Bunker to the Smoky Mountain Service Dogs family!

Bunker is an English Cream Golden Retriever from Dale Hollow Goldens and happens to be Sully’s brother! He will be co-raised by Diane and Evelyn as he begins his journey toward becoming a service dog for a veteran or first responder.

We can’t wait to watch this sweet boy learn, grow, and make a difference. Welcome to the SMSD pack, Bunker! 🦮

Last Friday, Harley officially began his next chapter alongside his new handler, Mike, during his Passing of the Leash Ceremony. ❤️🐾

Thank you to everyone who attended and supported this incredible team. Mike and his mother, Kathy, shared heartfelt speeches that left not a single dry eye in the room.

We also want to thank Harley’s puppy raiser, Michelle, for the amazing foundation she gave him, as well as his advanced fosters, Jerry and Janice Francis, for helping guide him through the final stages of his training journey.

A special thank you to Rocky Top Wine Trail in Sevierville for sponsoring Harley and helping make this partnership possible.

Congratulations to Mike and Harley! We can’t wait to see what’s ahead for this team.
