Specialties

Operation Overwatch offers a free weekly Service Dog training program for local military and first responders suffering from PTSD, TBI, Military Sexual Trauma as well as mitigating the effects of impaired mobility. The Operation Overwatch Service Dog program is unlike any other in that we truly believe in "Healing at Both Ends of the Leash"™, where we rescue dogs and give them purpose, work and a second chance at life. We are also helping those unselfish heroes that are also in need of assistance and a new chance at getting the most out of life. The bond that is formed in our program will play a crucial role in the healing process. Our program works with you for the long-term goals, ensuring your treatment continues to improve.

History

Established in 2015.

Operation Overwatch has been established for charitable and educational purposes. Specifically, we rescue dogs and then train them to be Service Dogs. Our founding team consists of three Military Working Dog handlers/trainers/veterans, a police K9 handler and an entrepreneurial development specialist. We are veterans that have seen both sides of the need for appropriately trained service dogs, the effects that they brings as well as knowing what it truly takes to train a dog to be a reliable source of freedom, rehabilitation, empowerment, comfort and peace.

Meet the Business Owner: Brice C.

Dog training has been my life, and starting Operation Overwatch was my response to seeing veterans and first responders suffer. I had to help with what I knew best, and dogs have a great ability to pick up on the subtle chemical and physical changes that happen to someone suffering from PTSD or TBI. I want to offer every veteran and first responder who is suffering the option to have access to our program. A service animal may not be for everyone, but it should be available for the brave service men and women that need help. I have over 25 years of experience training dogs to become military and police working dogs and obedient house pets, and I greatly enjoy working with animals that I can offer a second chance to. I was instrumental in the House Resolution that enabled retired military service and working dogs to be adopted after their service.
