Fall Regional Training 2022

We are always eager to gather with the SW Region LCC Comfort Dog teams. When that occurs, we have the opportunity to be with twelve dogs. Nine serve in Texas and three are in Oklahoma.

Besides training, we have the chance to worship together, play together and work together. When we met in the fall 2022, we concentrated on continued dog and handler training.

Sunday we were blessed to worship as a team at Messiah Lutheran Church, meet and greet with worshipers after church before going to visit a local fire station to thank them for their service.

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.
