THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUED TO ADD DOGS TO THE PROGRAM DURING THE PERIOD WITH 9 DOGS REMAINING IN VARIOUS STAGES OF THE TRAINING PROGRAM AS OF 6/30/2025. NO DOGS WERE RETURNED TO A SHELTER AT ANY TIME. LAUREN CHENEY WAS HIRED AS OUR DIGITAL SOCIAL MEDIA ADMINISTRATOR AND WILL HELP WITH MARKETING AND MANAGEMENT OF OUR WEBSITE. SERVICE DOG SUZIE WAS THE FIRST DOG WE PLACED IN DECEMBER 2013 WITH VETERAN JOHN BENCKEN. SUZIE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH LYMPHOMA CANCER AND PASSED IN APRIL 2024. VETERAN JOHN BENCKEN WAS GIVEN A SERVICE DOG IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE DIAGNOSIS SO THAT SUZIE COULD LIVE OUT THE REST OF HER LIFE IN RETIREMENT. WE HAD ANOTHER DOG WE PLACED IN 2016, NAMED ONYX, PASS AWAY. WE CONTINUE TO PARTNER WITH HILL COUNTRY DOG CENTER LOCATED IN BANDERA COUNTY. WE HAVE A LIST OF 44 QUALIFIED DISABLED VETERANS IN NEED OF A SERVICE DOG.
