Pets Healing Vets

Pets Healing Vets Saving Lives at Both Ends of the Leash These two groups have a commonality: the desperate need for hope. Most remarkably, each has the power to heal the other.

300,000 veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are currently struggling with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and/or TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury). These illnesses are devastating: 18 veterans commit suicide every 24-hours.

5-7 million companion animals enter shelters every year in this country. 60-70% are euthanized due to overcrowding, illness or behavioral issue, often the result of

neglect or abuse. Both know the pain of often being misunderstood and marginalized. We can help make it happen! The Humane Society for Hamilton County launched their Pets Healing Vets Program in May 2012 to match qualifying veterans suffering from PTSD or TBI with a shelter animal at no cost to the veteran. For more information re: the program's guidelines and requirements for participating please visit www.PetsHealingVets.com.

We are so proud to partner with the Hamilton County Community Foundation to strengthen our community though our Pets Healing Vets program.

In a staggering statistic, 22 military veterans commit su***de every day and approximately 2.7 million animals are euthanized in shelters every year. Pets Healing Vets was created to save lives at both ends of the leash, and through this grant, we will continue to use the healing power of pets to pair shelter dogs and cats with qualifying Hamilton County and Hoosier veterans suffering from PTSD or traumatic brain injury at no cost to the veteran for the life of the pet!

๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’– We had the honor of celebrating two wonderful Pets Healing Vets (PHV) pairs at Tinsel & Tails! ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’–

As we look back on this year's greatest stories of rescue and redemption, we are once again reminded of the true healing power of adoption - both for our animals and the humans who take them in.

This year's Tinsel & Tails featured video helps us honor the stories of two amazing veterans and their path to healing through the Pets Healing Vets program. โค๏ธ

Together, we will do Whatever It Takes for our shelter animals and Hoosier veterans in need.

๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Veteran's Day marked the beginning of a lifelong friendship for our new Pets Healing Vets Pair ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

Weโ€™re thrilled to announce a new PHV duo: Joshua and Sonny! Joshua is a Navy Veteran of 5 years who was looking for a companion who could bring some love and joy into his life- and thats where Sonny came in. The playful 1-year-old tabby has already settled in nicely in his new family, and we couldn't be more happy for them.

Healing companionships like Joshua and Sonny's are made possible by our friends at 849foundation, Canine Cloud Nine, CSCI Consulting, MISO Energy, Noah's Animal Hospital & 24 Hour Emergency Center, Paws & Play Dog Resort & Training Center, Tractor Supply Co.
