Soldier’s 6’s mission is to provide honorably discharged veterans, police officers, firefighters, paramedics, correctional officers, and 911 dispatchers with specially trained K-9's. Trained by professionals, each exceptional dog becomes a “Battle Buddy” who helps guide, protect, and support them through the hard days they encounter. The name "Soldier’s 6" was chosen because every service dog is specifically trained to have its Battle Buddy’s 6 (or back).
