Barbara Teasdale, Founder of U.S. Vets Adopt Pets, said “I just got off the phone with Stan. He is so happy with Chianti! Thank you so much for all the work you did for Stan and all the Veterans.

Your special focus of knowing what kind of dog would work well with veterans is invaluable.”

FHS Executive Director Selena Coffey applauded Rose and the other staff, “I am so proud of our team. Every single day, I am humbled to see the hearts of our staff and their unwavering dedication to our animals and those who provide them with loving homes.” The FHS mission is to find forever homes for animals. When this can occur with a veteran, there is extra pride. “Although this is just a small way to thank our veterans for the sacrifice they make while protecting the freedoms each American enjoys, we will continue to do whatever it takes within our power to aid them,” noted Sharon Rose.
