Hero Dogs, Inc

Hero Dogs, Inc, a Maryland 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, improves quality of life for our nation’s heroes by raising, training, and placing service dogs and other highly skilled canines, free of charge with lifetime support of the partnerships. The Hero Dogs staff and volunteers train dogs to assist veterans and first responders with physical limitations and/or mobility issues, hearing loss, mental health disorders, or combinations of these. A Hero Dog reduces a veteran’s reliance on other people by doing tasks that the veteran cannot do alone. A dedicated service dog can give a veteran the confidence and support to travel outside the home independently,(re)join the workforce, and accomplish the everyday tasks of living. Hero Dogs relies on volunteers to fill a variety of roles in the organization.
