Behind every statistic lies a story, a hero who served. Did you know there are 21 million American veterans, with 16.6 million having served during wartime? Yet, 3.6 million live with service-connected disabilities. Shockingly, almost half lack access to vital services. It's time to change that narrative. Join us in making a difference. 💙 #ourmission #veterans #militaryfamilies #armyveteran #veteran #nonprofitorganization #veteransupport #veteranassistance

Today, we #honor the #workingdogs, both past and present, that have served alongside their two-legged teammates on the #battlefield. March 13, 1942, the US Army began training for the new War Dog Program. This was the beginning of the dogs official military service, but dogs have served alongside their humans for centuries. Dogs continue to serve in #combat zones, execute rescue operations, identify hazardous materials and illegal substances, and conduct numerous other tasks to support #veterans, wounded #warriors, and the #disabled. Once retired from military service, some dogs are #not able to be adopted by their handlers. Many are too aggressive or suffer invisible wounds, just like their human counterparts, that make them unfit for #adoption. These are the dogs that are #euthanized, the ones who have given us the most. Check out this list of nonprofits to learn more about MWD’s and service dogs and how you can help.

Today's an important day to honor our veterans! More specifically, the K9 ones! March 13th is #k9 Veterans Day 🐶 🐾 Here's some interesting information from the American Kennel Club website on the history of dogs in the US Military: "The states had an unofficial canine war force in World War I, but military dogs did not become officially recognized until March 13, 1942, when a private organization, Dogs for Defense was established to recruit the public’s dogs for the U.S. military’s War Dog Program, known as the K-9 Corps." "Dogs’ sense of smell is roughly 50 times better than ours, meaning they can sniff out IEDs before they detonate and injure or kill U.S. servicemen in the prolonged Afghanistan and Iraq conflicts. Ground patrols are able to uncover only 50 percent of these, but with dogs, the detection rate increases to 80 percent, claims the Defense Department."

22 A DAY! 22 funerals are happening every single day from Veterans who have lost the battles with their demons. 1 IS TOO MANY! This is why it is so important to support The Veterans Ranch. The free equine therapy services that are offered to our Veterans, Gold Star Families, Active Duty Military, and their families is vitally important to start getting this number down. Horses assist these great #Americans in starting to lay down heavy coats of burden and start to walk off as new and improved version of themselves. By going to www.theveteransranch.org and contributing $22 a month you are helping there to be one less funeral and one more person that is still here with their family at the end of the day. YOU can make that happen. YOU by skipping one pizza a month can save lives. YOU can assist the ones that sacrificed more for you and your freedoms than you can possibly imagine. Can YOU do this? Can YOU skip one pizza a month to save lives? Can YOU help children have their Mother or Father around as they grow up? Look in your hearts and then go to the website and make your contribution today. Your contributions truly save lives. #thankyou
