A Pets For Vets Match Story

Pat and Sadie

OH MY GOODNESS……OH MY GOODNESS.....I REALLY AM GOING TO GET ME A COMPANION! I'M SO EXCITED!
I can't believe that this is really going to happen. Thank you so very much!   Pat, US Marine

Pat lost his good buddy of 16 years 6 months before he applied.  The depression was horrible, so his wife & Pat decided it was time to get another best friend.  

Pat takes Sadie to the Legion (where she has her own bed) and to his property in the country where she can run like the wind and then snuggles with him in the recliner in the barn.  She has a bed there too!  Sadie is one lucky dog. She gets to go with Pat everywhere, and on days that his back hurts too bad to get out of bed, Sadie is right there comforting him and keeping him company.
