Help a vet / save a pet! We train & place shelter dogs to provide independence to our US military veterans that suffer from PTSD. Donations are welcome!

To suitably match pets, often left behind from war torn areas or US kill shelters by pairing them with military veterans suffering from the emotional effects of war such as PTSD who seek the therapeutic and unconditional love only a companion animal can bring.

Guardians of Rescue believe that heroes deserve heroes. Any donation is truly appreciated and helps both ends of the leash.
Your support will help save, train, feed, house, and transport a dog to his/her veteran in waiting. We hope you will become part of our paws of war family!
