What our Veterans are saying about this program

A 10 year Army Veteran from Hawkinsville, GA, who has struggled with depression and addiction said,

"Genni has been a God send for me. She is better than any drug the VA can give me."

OCMA KidzThe Oconee Mentor’s Association Kidz visited the DCDP Campus to meet our Veterans and their puppies. The Veterans talked about what the program is all about, how we train our puppies, as well as some of their life experiences and what they have learned through their hardships. The kids were great and have made plans to return.
