Veteran K9 Rescue, Rehab and Rehome
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Andy Smith. I am a 27 year old Veteran K9 handler, trainer and behaviorist. I was an Explosive Detection Dog Handler in the Army and helped start up a Veteran owned and operated dog training franchise once I exited service.
I am currently in college for Industrial Design because I am also an inventor working on a dozen different projects. Products ranging from K9 accessories, apparrel, every day carry items and much much more.
MISSION:
My mission is to get every Veteran off the streets, every Veteran a job and every dog rescued in this country and I wil not stop or slow down until this is accomplished!
500k Veterans are jobless
40-50k Veterans are homeless each night
Up to 22 Veterans each day commit suicide
3.9 million dogs are in shelters each year
1.2 million dogs are euthanized each year
These numbers are unacceptable and We The People of America need to come together and start solving these issues.
These funds will help me start spark a revolution in the following ways.
1. Help me start a website, phone App and social media following to build a database of Veterans/ Veteran Owned and Operated Companies as well as Rescue Groups across the country to assist in this monumental movement.
2. Give me the opportunity to meet and interview Veterans and Veteran Owned and Operated businesses who have had a rough or successful transition out of the Military and figure out a way to change their lives through the Art of K9s and small business.
3. Allow me to travel and build these fundamental relationships face to face.
This is a massive vision that I see no end to. I am extremely passionate about these communities and again will not stop until every Veteran and Dog in this great country are taken care of!
I personally just got done being homeless for 3 months and know many more who need this help. The Veterans Affairs in South florida as well as VA ran Veteran homelessness groups turned me away for help. My college also messed my paperwork up for those 3 months not causing but assisting in this.
I am working on a video to explain all this in more detail and will release it once I start seeing a following for this.
Thank you!
