Boots & Paws Dog Awarding
Other Event Type for Guardian Revival Inc.May 07, 2022 2:00 PM to May 28, 2022 2:00 PM
Guardian Revival is a New York State 501(c)(3) Not-for-Profit chartered to support our guardians. We address guardian mental health through animal ownership & outdoor recreation, and provide training & equipment to our guardians at no cost so that they can better serve our communities.
One of our mental health programs, Boots & Paws, is a canine therapy program that provides dogs to veterans, first responders, and federal agents along with a care package that includes professional training sessions, veterinary coverage, pet insurance, food, toys, leashes, and other pet essentials for up to a year, which works out to be a $5,000 package per dog. The dog awarding is a special moment where, for the first time, the recipient sees their new companion.
We are asking for $50,000 to sponsor ten working dogs who will be awarded to a Veteran, First Responder, or Federal Agent (Our Guardians) to promote mental health through animal ownership at no cost to the recipient.
We hold dog awarding monthly depending on our breeder's litters being born.
