Legends Pet Care Services Achieves Its Goal of $2000 for K9s For Warriors
Legends Pet Care Services is proud to announce that we achieved our goal of donating $2000 by 12/31/22 to K9s For Warriors. Legends Pet donated by making corporate donations, donating a portion of our proceeds from September to December and receiving donations from clients and at events.
Funds donated will help K9s For Warriors to provide highly trained service dogs to military veterans suffering from PTSD, Traumatic brain injury and/or sexual trauma.
LEGENDS PET CARE SERVICES IS A PROUD SUPPORTER OF K9S FOR WARRIORS!
DETERMINED TO END VETERAN SUICIDE, K9S FOR WARRIORS PROVIDES HIGHLY-TRAINED SERVICE DOGS TO MILITARY VETERANS SUFFERING FROM PTSD, TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY AND/OR SEXUAL DRAMA.
TO DATE, K9S FOR WARRIORS HAS GRADUATED MOR THAN 700 WARRIOR-K9 TEAMS AND RESCUED NEARLY 1,500 DOGS OVERAL. WITH THE MAJORITY OF DOGS COMING FROM HIGH-KILL SHELTERS, THIS INNOVATIVE PROGRAM ALLOWS THE K9/WARRIOR TEAM TO BUILD AN UNWAVERING BOND THAT FACILITATES THEIR COLLECTIVE HEALING AND RECOVERY.
WHY IS IT NEEDED?
-
ROUGHLY 20 VETERANS WHO SERVED POST 9/11 COMMIT SUICIDE DAILY.
-
AROUND 20% OF POST-9/11 VETERANS SUFFER FROM PTSD EQUATING TO MORE THAN 700,000 VETERANS.
-
SERVICE MEMBERS SUFFERING FROM PTSD ARE AT A HIGHER RISK FOR SUICIDE.
-
AROUND 700,000 DOGS ARE EUTHANIZED IN SHELTERS EVERY YEAR. MANY OF THESE ARE WONDERFUL DOGS WHO CAN BE TRAINED AS SERVICE DOGS FOR VETERANS IN NEED.
WE WILL HOLD SEVERAL EVENTS AND FUND RAISERS DURING THE REST OF THE YEAR. CHECK BACK OFTEN FOR UPDATES.
Legends pet helping our environment by eliminating plastic bag use
In an effort to help our local environment, legends pet care services has eliminated the use of plastic poop bags. Legends pet will now exclusively use doggy do good premium waste bags. these poop bags are Vegetable-Based and a great alternative to regular polyethylene plastic bags. Made from corn-starch (an annually renewable resource) and other bio-based proprietary components, these bags are safe for the environment and break down in just 90 days. Sustainable and plastic free, these poop bags are 100% Biodegradable and Certified Compostable (ASTM D6400 Certified USA). That's the Doggy Do Good Difference!
Doggy Do Good promotes compassion, harmony, and awareness towards pets and planet earth. While striving to make pets’ carbon paw-print smaller, they also donate a portion of all proceeds to Animal Rescues & No-Kill Shelters.
You too can use these bags. go to doggydogood.com.
