Mark S.

Army Veteran

"My service dog Max has given me my life back. The nightmares have stopped, and I can finally go out in public without anxiety. Whiskey's Wish didn't just train a dog - they saved my family."

"Luna knows when I'm having a panic attack before I do. She's trained to interrupt my episodes and guide me to safety. The support from Whiskey's Wish has been incredible throughout our journey."
