Experience firsthand the inspiring and heartwarming bonds between
wounded veterans and their service and companion animals. "Vets and
Pets tells fifteen emotional and entertaining stories of the
incredible bonds between wounded warriors, veterans, and other
service members and their service and companion animals. Whether
these special relationships are with dogs, cats, horses, pigs, or
even birds of prey, readers will discover how these remarkable
animals help veterans return to civilian life and live
independently while simultaneously bringing joy and confidence into
their lives. Tyler struggled to adjust to civilian life after
losing both of his legs in Afghanistan, until he met his
intelligent and willfully disobedient red European Doberman
pinscher, Apollo. Vietnam veteran Patrick regained a sense of
well-being and hope through the study of birds of prey. Max the
horse has helped numerous veterans learn to trust, improve their
communication, and increase their self-confidence and self-esteem.
Mandi discovered that the intelligence and unconditional love of
pigs were exactly what she needed to heal from an abusive past and
a disappointing army-training injury. These are just a few of the
uplifting stories that are featured in this striking collection. In
addition to exploring the unique, lifelong bonds that can develop
between veterans and their animal companions, Vets and Pets
spotlights extraordinary nonprofits that unite wounded warriors
with service and companion animals, including Pets for Patriots,
Hooves Marching for Mercy, Horses Helping Heroes, and Avian Veteran
Alliance, among others. A portion of the proceeds from this book
will be donated to Pets for Patriots.
