Dedicated to all men and women who served in combat and their families who love them. Operation Dog Tag wishes to educate the community of their purpose and asks for help in aiding the returning veterans along with the ones that are already struggling at home.

And we veterans thank you as we continue “Making Man’s Best Friend Even Better For A Veteran”­­­ - Joe Scheffer, Director

Thomas S. Ventimiglia Jr.

Joe, I want to say thank you for all Operation Dog Tag has done for me by providing me with a black Lab puppy to be trained as a service dog for me. "Gunny" is what I have named him in honor of my service in the Marine Corps. The training you have provided, and continue to provide for me, and for Gunny to be trained as a service dog, is invaluable to me as my dog helps with my "PTSD" (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). I am looking forward to our next training session.
