Our work with local animal shelters will pair veterans with a free pet, so they can more easily deal with PTS, helping to heal the deep emotional scars, and possibly save their lives. We have also added an option to help a veteran fundraise for a service dog and we can help them get their current companion dog certified as a service dog!

All of our veterans need some level of help, whether they admit it or not… And whether or not they show any symptoms of PTS or other emotional issues.

Vets have sacrificed their well-being for us and our country, and now it’s our turn to help them in return!

Vets have sacrificed their well-being for us and our country, and now it’s our turn to help them in return!

This is our way to give back so they can enjoy the level of joy and happiness they deserve, and get their own life back… One a companion pet can offer.

And believe me, there are many pets that need a great home in the Seacoast N.H. area.

Due to the overwhelming response to this program, Angel Pets For Vets will adopt out 1 pet, 1 time to any current or former military!
