We are very honored to receive the Police Officer of the Year award. This would not have been possible without the incredible support from so many people along the way. Congrats to all the officers and VIPs who received awards recognizing their hard work and dedication.

Sometimes we assist 2 people at the same time. This is a nice reminder that support does not have to be limited to one person at a time.

Today is World Down Syndrome Day and Vinn is rocking his socks! We want to know if you are rocking your socks!
There’s something oddly soothing about hearing a dog crunching away on food but a human doing it is a whole different story…

Courtroom training today ⚖️🐾
Today’s focus was staying sharp while working in a courtroom environment.
Training reward: A crunchy bone
Don’t worry… we “vacuumed” the crumbs 😁

Vinn had a big day today, and it started with a presentation with Family Court. Today’s conversation focused on integrating our Facility Dog Program into the scheduling of Protection From Abuse hearings. By coordinating in advance, we can better ensure support is available when individuals need it most. Vinn is having a well deserved bone followed by a nap!

What made the difference for this program were the relationships built and the support that surrounded it along the way. I’m especially thankful for the current leadership who recognized its value and stood behind it. With that support, the program was able to grow into what it is today.
To all the men and women who put their lives on the line every single day to protect others, we appreciate you! Thank you for your service.
