Elliott and Frosty: Closing Out 2025 - A Meaningful Year of Placements

As we reflect on the impact of our work in 2025, we are proud to share the story of Elliott and Frosty, a partnership that marked our final Service Dog placement of the year. Their successful Public Access Test brought our total to 16 placements in 2025, each one representing a life changed through the power of a Service Dog.

From the beginning, Frosty settled in beautifully with his new family. Elliott quickly formed a strong bond with his new buddy and clearly adores having Frosty by his side. Frosty has already become a steady source of support, helping Elliott stay focused at school and during public outings, while also providing comfort during moments when Elliott feels overwhelmed.

This partnership is a powerful example of what makes our mission so meaningful. Each placement reflects years of training, dedication, and collaboration among our trainers, volunteers, donors, and families. Frosty and Elliott’s success serves as a reminder of the lasting impact these teams continue to have long after placement day.

As we move forward into a new year, we celebrate Frosty and Elliott and all 16 teams placed in 2025. Thank you to everyone who played a role in making that year so impactful. Your support continues to change lives and shape the future for Veterans with disabilities and children with autism.
