Empowering Heroes Through Service Animals

Bridging the gap between heroes and healing—one service dog at a time.

Our Mission

At Pawz4Heroes, we believe that no hero should walk alone. We provide professionally trained service dogs at no cost to wounded Israeli and American military veterans, civilians affected by terrorism, and therapy groups in need of canine support. Our mission is simple—to heal, empower, and restore independence through the unwavering loyalty of a service dog.

How We Make an Impact

🐾 Rescuing and Training Dogs

Many of our service animals are rescued from shelters and trained to become life-saving companions.

👨‍✈️ Supporting Veterans and Trauma Survivors

Our dogs provide mobility assistance, PTSD support, and emotional stability.

❤️ Therapy Group Partnerships

We place therapy dogs in rehabilitation centers, hospitals, and counseling groups to assist multiple individuals in need.
