Stars and Stripes Dog Rescue

EIN # 88-0888840 We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. We are grassroots, boots-on-the-ground, shelter less, foster-based and volunteer-powered organization.

The mission of Stars and Stripes Rescue and Training Center is to rescue at risk shelter dogs and to train them to become the highest quality service dogs to military veterans suffering with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. We will rescue dogs from Northern California high-kill animal shelters. We will also network with local rescue/shelters that might have a need to transfer dogs out of their faci

lity. We also provide free medical support for dogs of service members who are involved with Service Dog programs. We also find temporary homes for their dogs while they attend those several month-long programs. Knowing their dogs are safe and well cared for while they are away helps ensure those service members can successfully complete the programs. Dogs will complete the Canine Good Citizen™ Program and must pass the CGC Test. They will then move on to Service Dog training with the focus on PSTD skills. Once the dogs pass their “Support Dog” certification training, they will be adopted out to a fully screened applicant at no cost to them or their family. We also provide temporary housing and care (including veterinary support) for the dogs of military veterans while they participate in health care programs.

A little late in our welcome but......meet Ivory, a beautiful 5 year old Husky/Shepherd mix who joined the pack in October. Another Army Veteran who is dedicated to training this unusually subdued Husky mix. Ivory is already ahead of the game on the obedience side of training. We are expecting big things from her.

Our newest recruit is Thomas. Thomas is a 2 1/2 year old poodle mix. Small but feisty he will be working with his Army Veteran and (by default) his adorable sister to become a well rounded support dog.

Meet Weazer a 3 1/2 year old Pug/ French Bulldog mix. Our first flat faced sweet furball. His Navy veteran dad is so excited about joining our program. Expect some good stuff coming from this little man.

For those who know me, they’ll tell you I’m a private person. I rarely share personal stories, especially about the challenging paths I’ve walked in recent years. But as Veteran’s Day approaches, I feel a pull—perhaps a spiritual nudge from my late son—to share how Stars and Stripes Dog ...

What an amazing event!!! Estimated total of the number of Veterans attending the El Dorado Stand Down in Placerville was over 300.

We saw many dogs looking to get their vaccines current, nails trimmed, and cursory health checks. Thank you to our wonderful Dr. Szignarowitz for her continued support. We couldn’t do this without you!!!

We also were fortunate to be able to distribute tons of dog supplies. Thanks go to , , and for their generous donations.

We met some amazing veterans and listened to stories about their dogs - past and present.

We are looking forward to the Sacramento Stand Down coming up September 27th and 28th.

The more people who get involved in our program the more dogs we can save from euthanasia and the more veterans we can support in their healing journey.

A BIG Thank You to Dulce & Hiram from Docs Crealities who stopped by and dropped off a huge load of dog supplies. These supplies will be used at the Stand Downs coming up in September.

Without generous donations like this we couldn’t provide the level of support to our Veterans.
