As a veteran with a disability, I know firsthand the profound impact a service dog can have. My own Canine Companions service dog has not only improved my quality of life—she's given me back my independence. I can't imagine my life without her. That's why I'm participating in DogFest Bay Area 2025 and raising money for Canine Companions. They provide expertly trained service dogs to adults, children, and veterans with disabilities, completely free of charge. These incredible dogs change lives every day, and your donation can help give someone the same gift I received. Please help me reach my fundraising goal and support this life-changing mission. Every little bit makes a difference.
