The 7th Fold Program
At K9 Operations Dog Training, we understand that for many veterans, the hardest battles are often fought long after military service has ended. PTSD, anxiety, depression, mobility limitations, and other service-related challenges can make everyday life difficult. No veteran should have to face those struggles alone.
That is why we created the 7th Fold Program.
The name "7th Fold" comes from the traditional 13-fold ceremony of the American flag. The seventh fold is dedicated to honoring the Armed Forces of the United States and recognizing the sacrifices made by the men and women who have defended our nation and our freedoms. We believe that honoring veterans means more than simply thanking them for their service—it means continuing to support them when they come home.
The 7th Fold Program was designed to help veterans obtain and train highly capable service dogs that can assist with daily tasks, emotional support, confidence building, public access work, and greater independence.
Unlike many service dog organizations that can charge tens of thousands of dollars or place veterans on waiting lists that last for years, our goal is to make service dog training more accessible and affordable for those who need it most.
π Program Options Include:
βοΈ Bring Your Own Dog Program
- Veterans may bring a dog they already own.
- We will evaluate the dog's temperament, health, and suitability for service work.
- Dogs that qualify will enter our structured service dog training program.
βοΈ Puppy Included Program
- Veterans can receive a puppy sourced through our trusted breeding partners.
- Puppies are carefully selected for temperament, health, trainability, and service dog potential.
- The puppy and training program are combined into one complete package.
Through our partnership with trusted breeders such as Ringo Woods Shepherds and other approved sources, we work to provide dogs that possess the drive, stability, intelligence, and temperament necessary to succeed in service work.
Our mission is simple:
ποΈ Help veterans regain independence.
ποΈ Build confidence through reliable service dog partnerships.
ποΈ Create affordable pathways to service dog ownership.
ποΈ Reduce barriers that prevent veterans from receiving the support they deserve.
ποΈ Honor the sacrifices of our nation's heroes.
Every service dog trained through the 7th Fold Program represents a commitment to the veteran community. This program is not about profit—it is about purpose. It is about giving back to those who have already given so much.
At K9 Operations Dog Training, we believe that service deserves service.
Please keep in mind this program is 8 months long. and will be required to meet up at the minimum of 2 times a month to continue training.
