Service Dogs



Bob
Bob is a full-blooded Anatolian Shepherd. He was rescued from a high-kill shelter outside of Houston, Texas just before he was scheduled for euthanasia. Head trainer Paul chose Bob on a whim without actually meeting him. Bob was flown to St. Louis by our friend, Chris, who works with the award-winning charity animal transport organization,…



Frido
Frido was also found at Five Acres Animal Shelter by Brigid. As a volunteer, Brigid walked Frido and noticed her potential. Soon Paul made a visit and her assessment was extremely successful. The team was excited to welcome another Silver Lab into the program! Frido LIVES to play fetch with a tennis ball, but as…




Keene
Keene was donated to us as a puppy, and was puppy raised by Kathy. This sweet girl is eager to please and in tune with people’s emotions. Her skill set is growing every day and the team thinks she will make a great service dog. Keene’s training was sponsored by our founders, Andy and Marylynn…

Lizzy
We found Lizzy at Five Acres Animal Shelter and picked her out of her litter. The team did an assessment and enjoyed her happy-go-lucky energy and anticipated she would do well in the program. She is very eager to work and learn new skills. Lizzy’s training is sponsored by The Dick Scheffel Family Charitable Foundation,…

Paul found Riley from the wild world of Facebook. An abandoned Golden Retriever was dumped in a trailer park in rural Missouri. The next day, the team hit the road to pick her up! This sweet girl was extremely shy when she came to us. The team has allowed her to move at her own…

Sasha
Sasha is our fur-ball of energy! She was donated by a neighbor and friend of Andy & Marylynn Gladstein. While Paul was in California delivering another service dog to one of our veterans, he was able to meet Sasha, assess her, and bring her to our facility…the timing was perfect! She loves playtime and chewing…


Sy
Tagged on Save St. Louis Pets Facebook page, Paul was alerted about an outside dog that needed help. This calm girl wandered onto an older couple’s property, so they just let her stay with their current outside dog. With the help of a fellow rescuer, we were able to rescue her just before a blizzard…

Tito
Tito was a surrender to DFOB due to his high energy and drive. Trainer Paul received an email from a man in Kansas City who was going blind in one eye. Unfortunately, his wife would be having a hip replacement in 2020, leaving no one to walk or train this purebred German Shepherd Dog puppy.…
