DOG DAYS OF SUMMER

Tribute to Service - Working Dogs

The FIRST Issue featuring ‘Dog Days’ of Summer started in 2019, and is now one of our most popular San Diego issues every year.

“I got my service dog when I was medically retired out of the military, and it was the best thing that ever happened to me. I wish every medically retired serviceman could have a service dog. He’s amazing. He’s my best bud. I go everywhere and anywhere with him.”

— Marcus Luttrell

“Service dogs give us the courage to face the world, even when it feels like the odds are against us.”

“A service dog’s presence is a constant reminder that we are never alone in our struggles.”

“Service dogs are proof that small moments of joy and unconditional love can bring immense happiness into our lives.” -

“Service dogs show us that it’s not our disabilities that define us, but our abilities to overcome them.”
