Our Mission

Determined to end Veteran suicide Sophie’s Companions For Veterans provide service dogs to military veterans suffering from PTSD, traumatic brain injury and military Sexual trauma. All of our dogs are rescues. Our program allows the Sophie’s team to rebuild an unwavering bond that facilitates and connects healing and recovery between Veteran and Rescue.
Saving two lives.

Our Vision

     To continually provide veterans, and rescues alike with the opportunity to heal through partnership.
