The Russ Lyon Foundation Pinnacle Peak v-corps team held a fundraiser and collected items to benefit Dogs 4 Vets through the American Service Animal Society.

We collected $2,100 through our fundraiser and 2 boxes worth of items for the dogs.

We invited Dogs 4 Vets to one of our sales meetings to present them with a check and all the items collected. During the meeting, Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty President and Designated Broker Deems Dickinson presented the two individuals with challenge / commander coins thanking them for their service.

Dogs4vets helps disabled veterans train their own dog to be their service dog. Dogs4Vets sponsors disabled veterans that qualify with lifetime, no cost service dog training and certification. The veteran’s program is tailor-made for their specific needs. Unlike some programs that teach the dog mundane tasks like leaning, our service dogs are trained to interact with the veteran and notice changes in body language, stress hormone chemicals and voice. We stress the use of positive training methods.
