COVID-19 and Comfort Dog Ministry

With COVID-19 affecting visits for an extended time, our Comfort Dog ministry is going to look a little different for a while—but that's okay!

Our team members have switched gears as we continue to serve our community in different ways. Team members are sewing face masks. 

Team members are building the LCC Hearts of Mercy & Compassion, Crosses for Losses.

Team members are sending notes of encouragement to our nursing home residents and shut-ins. 

Keep up with the latest news by joining our email list below.

Check out this recently released book that features different working dogs. Phoebe and Pax are included. The book is available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

Kare 9 Military Ministry

Through the Kare-9 Military Ministry we have the opportunity to work veteran to veteran. We strive to serve our military, veterans and their families. Veteran handlers working with Kare 9 vested dogs have been able to engage members of the military community both active and retired.

Phoebe and Pax are dual-vested enabling us to further spread this ministry. It has been our great privilege to attend Welcome Home events and visit Veterans' hospitals and living facilities.
