Paws for Patriots

Bumped again for a good cause. The organization has extended the deadline for the walk-a-thon funds, and our group is only $263 from being able to name a puppy in honor of a fallen warrior.  If you had considered donating, and thought the time was past, we would love to have your support now!

Hello all, DO here.  It's been a long time since I've written but I have a worthy topic for today: Paws for Patriots.
 
So many of you here know the love and joy that a faithful pup can bring, and many, I'm sure, are aware of the therapeutic talents of our canine friends.  Paws for Patriots seeks to use those special canine abilities to help veterans, both physically and emotionally.  Paws provides several types of dogs ranging from guide dogs, to therapy dogs for those with PTSD, and facility dogs that visit those in the hospital.

My husband (AFSon) is currently raising money for a Walk-a-Thon that supports Southeastern Guide Dogs, an organization that depends solely on donations to raise and train dogs for Paws.  We truly felt that this community here would know of the amazing ability for dogs to help heal broken hearts, and so if you feel called to, we would love to invite you to donate.

There are many ways in the world to help those that are doing good, and this is simply one.  There is no obligation, no worries, just the chance to help.  Thanks all.
