Pittsburgh's Guardian Angels Mutt Strutt:
Paws with a Purpose
Guardian Angels: Heroes with a Woof
Guardian Angels Medical Service Dogs is more than just a canine training organization. They represent hope, care, and an undying commitment to our veterans. With a grim statistic showing that approximately 22 veterans take their own lives daily, the importance of interventions and support becomes crystal clear. The disturbing rise of this statistic during the COVID pandemic made the Mutt Strutt even more vital. With a proven track record of pairing veterans with service dogs, resulting in a zero suicide rate among recipients, these dogs are nothing short of life savers.
The magic behind Guardian Angels’ success lies in their philosophy – positivity. From training their dogs using only positive reinforcement techniques to wholly dedicating themselves to the recipients, Guardian Angels ensures that every service dog becomes a beacon of hope and support. It’s a bond built on trust, and they’re committed to making it right if there’s a mismatch. All that matters is that the veteran and the service dog thrive together.

Together, with organizations like the Guardian Angels and passionate groups like Photographers Near Me, we continue to move towards a brighter, more compassionate world for our veterans and the service dogs that stand by them.
