About Us

Shadow and I would like to welcome you to our home. Several years ago, I was injured while I was working for a police department. Since that time, I have had to deal with the resulting disability... seizure disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. In 1997, quite by accident, I found out about service dogs for individuals with seizure and post-traumatic stress disorders. After a diligent search, I found Shadow, a big, beautiful black Lab. The difference Shadow has made in helping me overcome some of my anxieties about this disability has been remarkable. Over the years that have followed, as my disability has changed, so to has he adapted to whatever has been and is required to keep me going forward. What is equally remarkable is the number of people who are ignorant of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and/or service dogs in public and private sectors. We have therefore set out as one of our goals to both assist other with service dogs and the education of other about service dogs.
