Warrior Canine Connection future service dogs on live puppycam

BL Ochman — Sat, 26 Jan 2013 17:15:24 +0000

These puppies, born December 28, 2012, are future service dogs for wounded veterans.

They’re on live puppycam where you can watch them being cared for and cuddling with their mom, Misty, tumbling and snuggling with each other, and being socialized by a steady stream of official puppy petters, babies and children.

People apply to become puppy petters and there’s no shortage of applicants!

Warrior Canine Connection teaches Service Members with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) the skill of training mobility service dogs to be partnered with Veterans with mobility impairments. This mission is specifically designed to reduce the symptoms of PTSD in the Warriors who train the dogs.

These Warrior-trained service dogs are then partnered with Veterans to provide them years of loyal companionship as well as an increased sense of wellbeing and independence.

Once you start watching, you aren’t going to get another thing done.
