Lighting up the lives of Veterans

Meet Lola - the abandoned dog that helped save the life of a Navy Veteran.
" It’s changed my life. It’s brought me back to the person I used to be. This program is just absolutely amazing. I wouldn’t be here today without it. Lola was one day off being euthanased and now she has saved my life."
