I served in Army from 2003-2009. 3 of those years were spent in combat. in 2008 I was wounded by a roadside bomb and sustained a TBI. I struggled with PTSD that was absolutely out of control and took over my life until august 2012 when i received a service dog for ptsd and tbi from k9sforwarriors.org Skip is a labradoodle that is a rescue. he was found beaten severely and chained to a dumpster behind a gas station. the organization has given Skip and myself a second chance at life. he wakes me up from nightmares, doesnt let people get close to me in public when im nervous, and about 1,000 other things. i have never been happier in my life and its because my doodle has taught me how to love and feel again!
