How to Make Your Pet a True American Hero: Supporting Veterans with Service Animals
A Hero’s Best Friend
When we think of American heroes, we picture brave men and women who’ve worn the uniform and served our country with courage. But heroes come in all forms — some walk on two legs, others on four. Across the nation, service dogs are transforming the lives of veterans, giving them freedom, hope, and emotional healing. These loyal companions are more than pets; they’re lifelines.
For many veterans coping with PTSD, anxiety, or mobility challenges, service dogs provide comfort and confidence in ways no medication or therapy can match. And thanks to incredible organizations and compassionate brands, more veterans than ever are receiving the help they deserve through these extraordinary animals.
The Life-Changing Bond Between Veterans and Service Dogs
A veteran’s journey doesn’t end when they return home. For many, adjusting to civilian life is a daily battle filled with invisible wounds. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and depression affect a large percentage of veterans, often making even simple tasks overwhelming. That’s where service dogs step in — not just as helpers, but as healers.
These highly trained dogs can sense emotional distress, interrupt panic attacks, provide deep pressure therapy, create space in crowded environments, and even remind their handlers to take medication. Beyond these practical skills, they bring unconditional love, trust, and companionship — powerful tools that help rebuild a veteran’s confidence, independence, and sense of purpose.
K9s For Warriors: Saving Lives, Two at a Time
One of the most inspiring organizations leading this mission is K9s For Warriors. This nonprofit rescues dogs from high-risk shelters and trains them to become life-changing service animals for veterans suffering from PTSD, traumatic brain injury, and military sexual trauma.
Their mission is simple but profound: saving lives, two at a time. Every dog trained becomes both a hero’s protector and a second-chance success story. By rescuing dogs and empowering veterans, K9s For Warriors embodies the best of American compassion, courage, and resilience.
LibertyPaw’s Commitment: 2% for America
At LibertyPaw, we believe patriotism is more than a feeling — it’s an action. That’s why we created 2% for America, our initiative that donates 2% of every sale to organizations that support both veterans and animals.

How You Can Help Support Veterans and Service Animals
1. Donate or Sponsor a Service Dog
Organizations like K9s For Warriors rely on generous supporters to cover the cost of training each service dog. Sponsoring or donating helps change two lives at once: a rescued dog and a veteran in need.
2. Share Their Stories
Use your voice to highlight the powerful bond between veterans and service animals. Share articles, videos, and testimonials on social media. Awareness leads to action — and action leads to more heroes getting the help they deserve.
3. Choose Brands That Give Back
Your everyday choices matter. When you buy from companies like LibertyPaw that donate a portion of sales to veteran and animal charities through programs like 2% for America, you turn your pet’s wellness routine into a meaningful act of gratitude.
A Legacy of Loyalty
From the battlefield to the backyard, loyalty is the thread that unites all heroes — human and canine alike. Service dogs remind us that courage, devotion, and love know no rank or species.
At LibertyPaw, we’re honored to stand beside America’s veterans and the incredible dogs who help them heal. Together with our customers, we’re building a future where no hero on two legs or four is forgotten.
Because Heroes Deserve Heroes
Your pet can be part of something bigger. Every time you choose LibertyPaw, you help support life-changing programs for veterans and service animals across the country.
Together, let’s make every pawprint count for those who’ve sacrificed so much.
