About this organization
Mission
America's VetDogs' mission is to help those who have served our country honorably to live with dignity and independence, whether they are visually impaired or have other special needs, through the use of assistance dogs. America's VetDogs provides independence, mobility and companionship for veterans and military personnel of all eras - from World War II to those recently wounded in active conflicts abroad - who are visually impaired or have other disabilities, through the use of guide, service, facility, therapy and companion dogs. Both guide and service dogs enable veterans to reclaim their independence and maximize the value they provide to their families, communities and country. For many combat-wounded survivors, success will be to live independently, achieving the highest quality of life possible with a realized hope for employment. Veterans with disabilities often have limited access to traditional employment, need flexible work schedules, or need a more accommodating work environment. Guide or service dogs provide a unique opportunity for our nation's hereos to continue their education and/or return to work. Freedom is precious to Americans. Our applicants, students and graduates valiantly fought to preserve it. With your support, America's VetDogs can continue to answer the call for our servicemen and women and provide them the support they deserve.
