Our Mission:

Doggie Handshake

There is no good way to say this. Some days are just hard.

Stress from the job.

Stress from what we have seen.

Stress from what we have done. 

Stress from what we have been through.

The world expects so much from us, and it can be overwhelming. 

Your best four legged buddy should not be stressful.

Your best four legged buddy should not be another rock in your backpack.

Your best four legged buddy should help carry your load. 

​

The rate of suicides in the United States among our Military, Gold Star Families, and First Responders has been increasing for many years. 

PTSD, traumatic incidents, ongoing stress, and lack of social support can all contribute to the increase in a person feeling alone, sad and with few options.

The mission at Buddy Up K9 is to give this segment of our population a reason greater than themselves to get up everyday. Not every person needs a service dog or an emotional support animal. Sometimes all a person needs is a buddy. Another living thing to share a day with, share a moment, share the couch, share their thoughts and feelings.
