About Business

Got Your Six Support Dogs is a 501c3 not-for-profit who supports veterans and first-responders who have risked their lives to serve our country. To help those who struggle with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) as well as sexual trauma, Got Your Six Support Dogs’ goal is to place trained PTSD service dogs with veterans and first-responders at no cost to help them heal from the psychological stress of war and duty through the compassion and healing power of their loyal 4-legged companions.

Trainers for Got Your Six Support Dogs, house and train a dog for a year, teaching obedience and service tasks with the guidance of the Director of Training. Trainers work remotely, except for 1 hour every other Wednesday when we all train together as a group.
All supplies, grooming, and veterinary care is provided and paid for by Got Your Six Support Dogs, but trainers are expected to make and get their service dogs in training to any and all appointments.

It is imperative that we keep good records of each dog's training, so trainers are expected to fill out training logs (provided by Got Your Six Support Dogs) for each of the dogs they are training. We also expect at least one training session to be recorded and posted to a trainer only Facebook page.

Since we are a not-for-profit we do have fundraising events that we will ask the trainers to come to with the SDiT to help promote us as an organization. Events are frequent, so we only ask that trainers can make it to one event a month.
