The Journey of Louise
Louise is my service dog. You might have seen us around Broomfield. She was born in San Antonio. She lived on a ranch. The incredible training for Louise was a journey. Heel The Heroes is an organization that provides Service dogs for Veterans of our great Country that have served and require assistance. The process takes about 2 years. Louise was trained by two wonderful ladies down in Texas. After 2 years of intensive training in San Antonio, Louise was then brought to Colorado with the CEO and Executive Director Lyndon Villone. An incredible Marine vet who started this wonderful organization. I meet Lyndon through a friend. I signed up as I’ve been looking for Service Dog to help with my Disabilities. I trained with Louise for 1 year and I was awarded the coolest dog in the country. Everyone wants to touch her, because she is so beautiful. We are Certified and Louise is my life saver. She provides me with mobility, PTSD Comfort , and currently we are training for my Diabetes to let me know if my blood sugar is to low. But the best thing about Louise is she loves everyone and every dog she meets.
