Major Activities

Activity 2

WCC initiated a dog breeding program in 2011 to produce healthy golden and Labrador retrievers with suitable temperaments for service dog work. A litter of black Labrador puppies was born in December 2011. Wounded Warriors from NICOE and WRNMMC were involved in the early socialization of these future service dogs for disabled combat veterans in the medical facilities and at the WCC Brookeville HQ. WCC's second litter was born in June 2012 and included six golden retriever puppies. "Holly's Half Dozen" were featured on a puppy cam that was viewed by millions of people all over the world, providing WCC with an outstanding educational opportunity to share information about the breeding, care, therapeutic training and benefits of service dogs to Wounded Warriors. A litter of yellow Labrador retrievers (the "Weather Litter") was born in late December 2012. A WCC dog must be approximately two years old and meet industry training standards to be eligible to be placed with a disabled combat veteran. Since WCC was created in 2011, the first program dogs are expected to be partnered with disabled veterans in 2013.

Activity 3

WCC provided its service dog training therapy program to patients at the WRNMMC Specialized Care Program (SCP) and recovering Warriors at the NeuroRestorative National Capitol facility in Germantown, MD. WCC dogs also worked with 187 soldiers in the Warrior Transition Units at WRNMMC and Fort Belvoir, VA. Wounded Warriors from NeuroRestorative Capitol Facility, WRNMMC, and Fort Belvoir also visited the Brookeville HQ.
