 It was great to see so many of you attend our Solos Fundraiser!  It was a great opportunity to get out in the community and let the public know about Courage Service Dogs and our mission to help those with PTSD.  It also was a great opportunity to let people meet our new puppy in training, Paisley and hang with all the Courage Dogs!  Thank you so much for your support!

Minnesota 9-11 Tribute Memorial Concert
​Sunday, September 11, 2016

An amazing crowd of people turned out for the 14th annual Minnesota 9-11 Tribute Memorial Concert.  The recognition of military and first responders who lost their lives helping others was incredibly moving.  The parade of flags honoring all branches of the military service, police departments, fire departments, emergency medical services, ROTC, and Boy & Girl Scouts troops was especially touching.  Our silent auction raised almost $1000 for Courage Service Dogs.  Thank you so much to all the volunteers who came out to help - we couldn't have done it without you!  

Plymouth Culver's Fundraising Event
July 11, 2016
​

Thanks to everyone who came out to support Courage Service Dogs at our Culver's Event. Our volunteers had a great time serving customers their food and taking care of the drive through customers.  The customers loved seeing us come out to deliver food to their cars with the help of one of our pups.  Hats off (literally) to the team of Erin and Cricket who dazzled the crowd and earned the most tips.  Our dogs were so well behaved we were asked to come back soon for another fundraiser!  Culver's generously donated 15% of their sales during the fundraiser to Courage Service Dogs.  

A HUGE thank you to Sarah Josephs who planned, organized and hosted the event!

Our Culver's volunteer staff:  Caryn Addante (Willow), Angie Doerr (Lexie), Trish Sisto (Scarlett), Erin Dietz (Cricket) and coach, Holly Schultz!

The event was a great opportunity to practice some distraction training. With hundreds of dogs waking by, our girls did outstanding in their off leash training!
