In 2011 - 2012 my daughter, Jessica volunteered 150 hours at a non-profit organization that rescued large-breed dogs and trained them to be assistance dogs for disabled military veterans. Most of these veterans bore the scars of war inside where they could not easily be seen. Some were recluses and hadn't been out to public places for 40 years. Some had traumatic brain injuries, some had physical disabilities, some were just changed forever inside. Jessica witnessed firsthand the positive impact that these assistance dogs had on the lives of the veterans she met while there. She also gave her time, her love and her heart to each and every dog and then willingly gave them up to the veteran who needed them most. This book is a small glimpse into that journey of hers, and, also meant to highlight the importance of such programs for military veterans who have suffered the effects of combat in their bodies and in their souls. May we continue to show our gratitude for those who secure our freedoms.
