Jason is a proud veteran, loving father, and animal lover who was diagnosed with PTS after his time in the military. Jason struggles daily with hypervigilance and anxiety. As a result of his PTS symptoms, he frequently feels overwhelmed with anger and frustration, making everyday feel like a constant struggle. He applied to paws4people in hopes of finding a companion who will help him regain his independence. Jason is confident that a service dog will help him feel more in control of situations and safe enough to be an active member of his community.
Jason and WOODROW became a working team in 2025 and are looking forward to all of their adventures to come! WOODROW will help Jason by paying attention to his surroundings and anchoring to his anxiety. WOODROW will also cuddle, interrupt negative behaviors, and wake Jason from nightmares. Through these tasks, Jason and WOODROW can lead a full and happy life without the symptoms of PTS standing in the way! We can not wait to see all of the wonderful things these two will do together!
