Dogs2DogTags

Dogs2DogTags Our primary goal is to provide military veterans a loving, canine companion. We are committed to standing by our veterans, and keeping them aware that we care.

What We Do

We create opportunities to save at risk dogs, train them, and place them with deserving service members who have been diagnosed with post-combat stress and anxiety. There is no out of pocket cost for the veteran to receive a trained dog, and they gain a constant companion to help them cope with the unique challenges of their everyday life. Who We Are

We are a group of men and women wh

o have either served in or worked closely with our military. We’ve seen the difficulties that our men and women face when returning to civilian life, and we’ve known men and women who have tragically contributed to the unprecedented rate of veteran suicides. Torre’s Story

The idea for Dogs2DogTags came to Torre Willadsen when he was deployed as a civilian contractor working with military dogs in 2012. During his time with the 7th Marines, he developed close bonds with dogs and dog handlers alike, and when dog handler Chris Van Etten was wounded, Torre worked hard to help keep Chris and his dog Harley together during Chris’ recovery. Torre suspected—and then saw firsthand—the profound effect a canine companion could have on a wounded man’s frame of mind at a difficult time. And that’s when Torre knew that he wanted to bring that kind of unconditional support to those back home struggling with post-traumatic stress. Staff:
Torre R Willadsen: President & Founder
Sergeant Major Ryan Hermance (USMC): President North American Operations
Brek Rammer: VP of North American Operations
Jennifer Tisch: Chief Operations Officer

🍋💛 Meet Lorraine, our youngest hero! This incredible little girl set up "Lorraine's Lemonade Stand" as a fundraiser and raised an amazing $675 for Dogs2DogTags!

With her parents' support in teaching her about community service, Lorraine didn't just serve up refreshing lemonade - her mom also baked delicious cupcakes to help boost the fundraising efforts.

Stories like this remind us that heroes come in all sizes, and kindness has no age limit. Thank you, Lorraine and family, for your generous hearts and for supporting our veterans! 🇺🇸🐕

This training session was a good start on stay and down stay. We placed the dogs in close proximity and sent a new puppy through the center. 🐾
It was a good feeling watch the dogs want to break and interact with the new pup Lucy. But they all held their ground! We did this several times, the 2 younger dogs really were challenged with this one. Within 3 resets they all stayed! ⭐

It is hard to believe that one year ago we officially opened our training facility! 😍🤩
