Veterans, suffering from PTS and other isolating and debilitating issues, have found deep comfort, love, and reassurance in their relationship with their K9 service dogs. These heroic dogs often prevent a veteran from slipping into an anxiety attack or waking them as they are caught in a horrific nightmare. These dogs are lifelines for our veterans, and when the dogs die, the grief is especially profound.

At Animal Talks, we deeply understand the unique bond between military personnel and their service animals. Our new initiative offers heartfelt pet loss support and grief counseling to those facing this profound loss. Recognizing the crucial role service animals play, we are dedicated to providing compassionate assistance during these challenging times.
