Tracy & Callie

Tracy & Callie 

Callie went from being a junkyard dog to a service dog – what an impressive transformation! Soldier’s Best Friend found Callie through a local animal rescue in the greater Phoenix area. Callie was found in a junkyard with her six puppies and is believed to be an Akita/Pointer mix. 

Tracy and Callie have been together for three months now and Tracy feels training is going very well. Next week they are taking the AKC Canine Good Citizen test, which is the first test each veteran pairing has to take in the program. 

Tracy proudly served in the Army for two years as a Military Police Officer. When Tracy was asked what makes Callie so special to her she replied, “She makes me get out of bed and actually face the day. I have someone I can talk to who will not judge me at all. She listens to my stories, problems etc. and still kisses me.” Love it!
