Time for a pup-date!💌🐶
Say hello to Joy from Puddles’ litter! This sweet girl is currently undergoing formal service dog training with New Life K9s in California. Joy was apart our Started 4 Service Program program, a program that is tailored to give our furry friends a head start on their training, paving the way for a smoother transition into our partner organizations.
Check out the update we received from her trainer👇:
“Joy has been living at the California Men’s Colony since she came to us in April and is being trained by our group of inmate handlers. She has two main trainers who have dedicated a lot of time and love to Joy and she has been doing well. She currently has a puppy raiser that she goes home with on weekends to get exposure out in the world and to practice her skills. She is mostly focusing on her public and home manners currently. She is very smart and very sweet.”

Ever wondered why Labrador Retrievers are such highly regarded service dogs?
Their intelligence allows them to quickly learn and perform complex tasks, such as guiding individuals with visual impairments safely through daily routines or alerting to impending medical issues. Beyond their intelligence, Labradors possess a gentle and friendly temperament, crucial for their role in providing comfort and emotional support to those in need. Their innate patience and willingness to please make them highly trainable and reliable partners in service. Moreover, Labradors are known for their strong bond with humans, making them not just capable assistants but also loyal companions who genuinely care for their handlers’ well-being.
By embodying these qualities, Labrador Retrievers align perfectly with our mission of transforming lives through service dogs. Their intelligence, compassion, and unwavering dedication make them invaluable partners in providing support, independence, and joy to individuals in need. At Project 2 Heal, we are proud to champion Labradors as exceptional service dogs, helping to fulfill our commitment to making a positive impact in the lives of others.

Our Started 4 Service puppies had a pawsitively paw-some time on their socialization trip to Lowe's Home Improvement! 🛠️💙🐾
It's so important for future service dogs to get out and about in different environments from a young age to help them become well-adjusted and confident companions. Early socialization trips like these help our service puppies get used to different sights, sounds, and smells, which is crucial for their training and development. By exposing them to new experiences in a positive and controlled way, we're setting them up for success in their future roles as service dogs.

Did you know that diabetic alert dogs have an incredible ability to detect changes in blood sugar levels through their heightened sense of smell? They can pick up on subtle shifts in scent that indicate high or low blood sugar, giving their owners early warnings to prevent emergencies.
But the cost of obtaining and caring for these amazing dogs can be a barrier for many individuals and families. With the average cost being $30,000, not everyone can afford this life-changing companion.

Join us this week for Seven days with Samantha: #RememberingMoonpie, a tribute to unforgettable friendship.
One year ago, on June 24, 2023, we lost a true hero and beloved friend, Moonpie, Samantha’s devoted diabetic alert service dog. Moonpie was more than just a pet - she was a loyal companion who safeguarded Samantha after her type 1 diabetes diagnosis.
Samantha's mother went to great lengths to ensure her daughter's well-being, eventually connecting with Project 2 Heal, where they found Moonpie. The extraordinary bond between Samantha and Moonpie highlights the profound connection between humans and animals.
Moonpie's ability to detect changes in Samantha's blood sugar levels saved her from countless dangerous situations, giving her and her family peace of mind and allowing her to live more independently. But beyond the practical assistance, Moonpie brought immense joy and companionship to Samantha's life, becoming a cherished member of their family.
In honor of Moonpie's memory, we invite you to join us in making a meaningful impact. Your donation will support future litters of service dogs, ensuring that Moonpie's legacy continues to brighten lives. Your contribution will help provide more individuals like Samantha with the life-changing support of a service dog.
Together, let's celebrate Moonpie's life and ensure that others in need receive the same love, care, and assistance that Moonpie provided so selflessly. Join us in honoring Moonpie's incredible legacy:

Time for a pup-date…a very special pup-date!💌🐾Everyone say hello to Jillian and Baxter! This handsome boy is one of Tink’s sweet pups who was bred and nurtured by Project 2 Heal! Check out Jillian and Baxter’s story!👇“I have had baxter for around 7 years now. I was exploring different options that would allow me to live independently without my parents, so I could go to college. We found Project 2 Heal and I volunteered there for around a year and a half before receiving Baxter! He has been my constant companion. He came with me my senior year of high school and walked accross the stage then too. He lived in the dorms with me, came to every single class I went to and every work shift in the library. He’s definitely ready to retire as a porch dog now.“Congratulations to Jillian for graduating from UNC Asheville, and Baxter for a wonderful 7 years of service and friendship!💙
