we bring psychiatric service dogs together with Napa County residents and Bay Area military veterans who have been diagnosed with a mental health illness — at no charge to the recipient.

“It’s hard to believe that Tilly and I have been together 2.5 years already. We are so deeply bonded at this point. It’s amazing being with a dog one on one all the time. Every little noise, gesture, movement has a meaning—makes for seamless communication. She has helped me immeasureably.”

AN INVALUABLE ASSET IN MENTAL HEALTHCARE
Psychiatric Service Dogs play a vital role in the day-to-day functioning of someone suffering from a mental health illness.
among their many talents, these service dogs help perform everyday tasks for their person — things that those of us who do not suffer from a mental health illness can easily take for granted. things like walking across a bridge, remembering to take medication, entering a dark room, or going into public spaces. they help keep their person in the present.
these dogs are truly invaluable to their person.
