OUR MISSION
MISSION IMPOSSIBLE
THE PROBLEM
THE SOLUTION
Veteran’s Elite Canines mission is to raise funds to:
- Provide Canadian Veterans suffering from PTS with specifically trained and supported service dogs; Provide the service dog at no cost to the Veteran
- Provide the dog and handler team with support as identified
- Develop and distribute educational material and messages regarding PTS service dogs to specific audiences and the broader public
- Advocate on behalf of Veterans with PTS service dogs.
Veterans are suffering from PTS and under physician’s care, are prescribed the use of a Service Dog to reduce symptoms and return them to community life. Veteran’s Elite Canines has access to these lifesaving medical devices, and the only barrier from getting them into the hands of our Veterans
is funding. Medical establishments and Veteran Affairs are increasingly relying on use of cannabis for PTS treatment (as this is funded). Veteran’s Elite Canines has recognized the negative physical, emotional and functional side effects of the over and sometimes unnecessary use of cannabis to relieve PTS symptoms with some of our Veterans and failure
to ultimately return Veterans to be functioning members of society.
