Day 6. Today’s gift is time given with purpose.
Volunteers play a vital role in shaping confident, capable dogs by showing up day after day with patience, consistency, and care. From fostering and socialization to hands-on support, their time helps move each dog one step closer to a life-changing placement. We are deeply grateful for every volunteer who gave their time in 2025 to support this mission.

Day 5. Today’s gift is expert training with a purpose.
RFI SDiT go through a minimum of two years of training and are trained to meet the specific needs of the person they will serve. Shown here is our Thanksgiving puppy foster class, an early step in building the foundation for confident, capable Service Dogs. From public access skills to specialized tasks, every detail is designed to help a future team thrive.

Day 1 of 12 Days of Christmas, RFI Edition.

Today’s gift is promise. Gretta’s puppies are growing fast, and each one represents a future Service Dog who can change a life.

Thank you to the people who support our puppies from day one, including our fosters and veterinary partners who help them get the strongest start possible.

Follow along all 12 days, and consider supporting a puppy’s early training.

This season, we are putting a meaningful twist on a holiday tradition. The 12 Days of Christmas are often about counting joyful moments, and at Retrieving Freedom, every day brings a new reason to celebrate the impact of Service Dogs.

Starting tomorrow, we are sharing 12 days of RFI stories, programs, and people that make independence, safety, confidence, and unconditional companionship possible for Veterans with disabilities and children with autism.

From growing puppies to life-changing placements, each day highlights a piece of the mission that continues long after the holidays are over.

Follow along December 14 through December 25, and help us spread the message by sharing the stories that inspire you most.

We are excited to share that Matt and his Service Dog, Zander, have officially passed their Public Access Test and are now a placed team.

In just a few short weeks, Zander has brought comfort, stability, and confidence into Matt’s daily life and has fit seamlessly into their family. Their quick bond is a strong start to a partnership that is already making a meaningful difference.
