About us
Northwest Battle Buddies gifts professionally trained service dogs to Veterans battling PTSD, helping them regain their freedom and independence. There is no cure for PTSD, but service dogs can reduce PTSD symptoms with life-changing — results. With a canine Battle Buddy by their side, Veterans with PTSD can regain their freedom and independence. All our service dogs spend 5+ months in intensive training, then are carefully matched with a Veteran handler for five more weeks of training and bonding, creating the ultimate partnership.

As National Service Dog Month comes to a close, we’re reflecting on the incredible impact our service dogs have had on the lives of Veterans. One special highlight is Twitch, our 200th service dog, who has been thriving alongside his Veteran, Ryan. 🐾💙 “Twitch is the sweetest goofball that I have ever met, and he has enriched our lives to the fullest. We have been having the best summer together. His spirit of adventure complements his tender need for a good snuggle. He is always there for me, and there is true comfort in that peace of mind.” We are so grateful to continue this mission and excited to announce that our next Veteran class starts just next month. With 257 Veteran teams graduated, we are ready to change even more lives. Thank you to everyone who supports Northwest Battle Buddies – we couldn’t do it without you. 🐾🇺🇸

September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. The battle doesn’t end when our American Heroes return home. Sadly, financial concerns, lack of social support, and PTSD contribute to alarming rates of Veteran suicide—71.8% higher than the general population. But there’s hope. Access to crisis care, like the Veterans Crisis Line, and the partnership of a PTSD service dog, can be life-saving. At Northwest Battle Buddies, we pair professionally trained service dogs with Veterans at no cost, helping them manage PTSD and reconnect with life. Discover more about the Veteran suicide crisis and how you can make a difference in our latest blog. Together, we can support those who’ve sacrificed so much for us. https://lnkd.in/ga-BuYVh
