Our Service Dog staff and trainers follow Assistance Dogs International (ADI) standards to match qualified Texas veterans with professionally trained service dogs for PTSD, mobility, military sexual trauma (MST), traumatic brain injury (TBI), and related service-connected challenges.
This seminar is for: Texas Veterans with service-related disabilities—including PTSD, MST, TBI, and mobility challenges—who live within a 4-hour drive of our Cedar Park, Texas campus.

Trained dogs are provided at no cost to qualified Texas veterans; a nominal pre-acceptance fee covers online software costs.
