I'm Derek Pyle. I'm currently a first responder out of eastern Idaho. I struggle with PTSD and anxiety.

I am currently at the Warriors Heart program in Bandera, TX. I have been participating in their K9 elective and found a perfect match for me.

His name is Chuck, and he is a 4-year-old bull mastiff. We have been working 7 days a week together, and I think we make a great team. He watches my back and keeps me grounded in tough times.

The cost is $5,000 to adopt. This covers their training, shots, and etc.

I set up this GoFundMe to help raise funds to take Chuck home with me after I complete my treatment. Any and all donations would be greatly appreciated.
