Our Mission

Inspired by a dog’s unconditional love and loyalty, our Mission is to enrich the lives of all those who answer the call to serve and their families through the human-animal bond.  

 

Our team travels to various events and facilities, to bring comfort & joy,  lifting spirits of service members, veterans, 1st responders and their families.

What is a Comfort Dog?

 

A Comfort Dog is a newer subset of a Therapy Dog.  It's a working dog that, as the name implies, gives comfort to those facing life's challenges and enriches lives through the human-animal bond*. 

 

Comfort Dogs are not Service Dogs or Emotional Support Animals.  Comfort Dogs lift spirits, provides affection or comfort to people other than their owner/handler

 

Whereas both Service Dogs and Emotional Support Animals provide service or support for their owner/handler.

*The Human-Animal Bond is a mutually beneficial and dynamic relationship between people and animals that positively influences the health and well-being of both.
