HRT K9

Harts' Recovery Team is a nonprofit providing service dogs to Veterans free of charge. Recovery is something that is very important to our family.

Justin is in recovery from PTSD. Being paired with his service dog Lexie changed his life and our family. Providing the same opportunity to other veterans walking that same path is part of maintaining his recovery. We believe that creating a team of one human and one rescue dog walking the road of recovery together offers both the dog and the veteran a better chance of success. It also invites them in to a community of recovery minded people doing life together.

James is trying on mom's support beads- blue for su***de awareness support and teal for a family member who struggles or has attempted su***de.

09/07/2024

Today we are headed to the American Foundation for Su***de Prevention's Out of the Darkness Walk in Anchorage. This is a cause that is very near to our hearts.

Yesterday we got to celebrate Justin's birthday in full gratitude that he's still here, and today we want to support those who are still struggling.

Today we reinforced kennels and put in new stall mats while Milo kept Lexie company in the driveway.

Poor Theodore tried so hard only to be thwarted in the end. #hrtk9 #puppiesofinstagram #servicedogintrainingpuppy #servicedogintraining #helpingvets #helpingveterans

Lexie is Justin's service dog... and Justin is Lexie's emotional support human- she wants to go everywhere he goes. #hrtk9 #ptsdrecovery #helpingvets #helpingveterans #servicedog

Today we are heading to Woofstock in Anchorage, Alaska- a fundraiser being held for our local animal shelter- and we thought it would be fun to let everyone know who we are. The HRT logo was designed by Heather and Olive with input from Justin. Each left sleeve features a cartoon Lexie, hand drawn by Olive. We love how these turned out! #woofstock #hrtk9 #helpingvets #helpingveterans #nonprofit #servicedogintraining

Adventure awaits! #outside #dogsofinstagram #puppiesofinstagram #servicedogintrainingpuppy #servicedogintraining #helpingvets #helpingveterans #hrtk9

Do you have any idea how difficult it is to start a nonprofit? Neither did we. For now, it's just the five of us, five puppies, and a whole lot of hard work. #servicedogintraining #servicedogintrainingpuppy #helpingvets #helpingveterans #hrtk9 #faithinaction #faithoverfear

The moment we discovered disposable pee pads were not going to be a good option for us 🤣 #dogsofinstagram #servicedog #helpingvets #helpingveterans

HRT K9 is training shelter dogs to be service dogs for veterans at no charge to the vet. Our plan was to find land, build a kennel, and get all of our ducks in a row. But God threw us a curveball, and long story short, we're training five puppies out of our home while we wait on the other pieces to come together. #dogsofinstagram #servicedog #helpingvets #helpingveterans
