Assistance Dogs for Armed Forces & Emergency Services

Our application process is open

Our Hounds are specially trained Assistance Dogs that empower those who’ve served to thrive on their own terms, enjoying a life with greater freedom, confidence and purpose, always with a loyal partner by their side.

We’re proud to support current and former members of HM Armed Forces and the Emergency Services who have developed a physical disability through illness or injury, either during or after their service.
