Wow can’t believe it was a week ago today that Dan & Ranger threw out the first pitch at the Portland Pickles Baseball game!

The ceremonial first pitch is a longstanding ritual of baseball in which a guest of honor throws a ball to mark the end of pregame festivities and the start of the game. Since 1910 all but two US presidents have thrown out ceremonial first pitches at one of of the three important baseball games annually (Opening Day, the All Star Game or the World Series).

The Portland Pickles chose to bestow this honor on the 4th of July to the director and founder of K9K in honor of the partnership between the two organizations. To throw out a ceremonial first pitch at America’s Pastime on America’s birthday could have only been more representative of America if Dan was eating a slice of apple pie while doing it!

Another great opportunity to bring the vision of K9K to the veterans of Oregon!

At the 80th Oregon Department of Veterans' Affairs Expo in Salem, dozens of veterans organizations from across Oregon came together to offer benefits and services to Oregon veterans. There were roughly 300+ veterans at the Expo, with dozens of veterans specifically asking about K9K and our benefits for veterans.

Everyone loved seeing the puppers. There was high interest in our program because we help train veterans to train their service dogs to meet their disability needs, and the service dogs get to learn and grow with them. Our goal is to help veterans gain a resource for a better life experience with training, life skills management, and having a service dog, as well as the benefits of having a battle buddy by their side and camaraderie with veterans in our pack.
