John & Carmyn

During his 11 years in the Navy, John served as a field medic and scout sniper.  Six tours later, including deployments supporting Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom, John returned home with a host of physical and mental challenges.  Since joining our training program, John has proved to be an open book of honesty, dedication, and appreciation for being able to work towards a service dog of his own.

A man dedicated to service of others; he has worked hard to be in service of himself since his transition to civilian life and now he is in service of Carmyn.  While she has been of tremendous support to him already, improving his sleep and providing the support needed during anxiety inducing situations, he lives to care for her like she is one of his children.
