Groundbreaking Ceremony - August 27th
Join us as we celebrate breaking ground on the next phase of New Hope Ranch: a 3,000 square foot Boarding Kennel and Education center. The center will house our service dogs for short periods of time during the most intense phase of training, prior to moving in with a foster training family. The space will also serve as a training center for our S+CORE job skills program; students will get hands-on experience in kennel work, grooming, office skills, and dog training. 

Date: Thursday August 27th 
Time: 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Location: Austin Dog Alliance 1321 West New Hope Drive, Cedar Park TX
What: Kennel, Education Center and Tribute Garden ground breaking.
RSVP: Light refreshments provided, so please let us know you are coming by sending us an e-mail.

the impact of stress on the human body.

Thank you to Tania Glenn and Associates, Veteran Pat Stockwell, and all those who attended our free PTSD and Service Dog Seminar.  


 
To better provide information specific to the needs of veterans, we've launched a website just for Hounds for Heroes. 

We hope you'll visit www.houndsforheroes.us to learn what PTSD Service Dogs do, how they are trained, how they are funded, and to locate forms for donating, becoming a sponsor, or applying for a service dog.
