PET THERAPY DOG PROGRAM


Our team of therapy dogs extend our support through our Therapy Dog Program. We visit veterans' homes, veterans' events, schools, rehabilitation facilities, Scouts of America meetings, and more. These visits aim to bring comfort, companionship, and emotional support to veterans and others in need, fostering a sense of connection and community. Through this outreach, we strive to make a positive impact on mental health and well-being in various settings, offering the healing presence of our therapy dogs to those who could benefit from it most.

PSYCHIATRIC SERVICE DOG PROGRAM


Operation K9 Beethoven is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to supporting veterans who are living with PTSD and other mental health challenges. Recognizing the profound impact that service dogs can have on mental well-being, the organization provides rescued, trained psychiatric service dogs at no cost to veterans. Each veteran also receives a comprehensive starter kit, which includes essential items such as a kennel, bed, blanket, leash, collar, bowls, a bag of dog food, treats, toys, and a service vest complete with patches. Founded by veterans, parents, and siblings who have personally witnessed the effects of PTSD and related conditions, Operation K9 Beethoven is driven by the mission to improve the lives of veterans through the companionship and support of a service dog. Applications are 100% Confidential.
