When you sponsor a pet, you’re helping dogs become life-changing companions for veterans, providing essential therapy dog visits, or funding critical training programs. Through sponsorship, you enable dogs to create a lasting impact on individuals and communities. Whether it’s supporting a service dog in training, helping a therapy dog visit those in need, or giving a dog the chance to complete advanced training, every sponsorship makes a difference.

Choose How You Want to Sponsor a Pet

We offer multiple pet sponsorship options so you can decide how you’d like to make a difference. Select the sponsorship that resonates most with you:

Sponsor a Service Dog for a Veteran

Sponsor a Therapy Dog Visit

By sponsoring therapy dog visits, you bring comfort, joy, and emotional relief to those in hospices, nursing homes, children in schools, hospitals, and therapy centers and much more. Therapy dogs help patients recover faster and provide children with emotional comfort during stressful times.
