Sierra Delta Service l Dogs l Veterans
Welcome to a new kind of Veteran Service Dog Organization

10/16/2026

Community is one of the ways we heal.

Studies on veteran volunteers found a renewed sense of purpose when serving their communities, and recently separated veterans built larger and more diverse social networks, which is exactly what a lot of us lose when the uniform comes off.

It doesn’t have to be something big, a simple hobby can be an easy way to meet people without having to focus on trauma. Community is about growth, and it helps carry us through transitions like leaving the military.

“I am so much more confident with Yondu by my side.”

Some days you don’t have to explain anything, because your dog already knows.

According to a 2019 study, dog owners walk about 200 more minutes a week than people without a dog, and now those steps can help fund a Life Buddy grant!

Proud to share this from our friends at Sjoberg Tool! 🇺🇸

Sjoberg has been a faithful supporter of Sierra Delta and the veterans we serve through service dog training and wellness programs. Support like theirs is what puts a trained dog at a veteran's side.

This November, in honor of Veterans Day, Sierra Delta will be visiting the Sjoberg team, and one of the Mid-West Regional Ambassadors, Lee Otto, is honored to be speaking. Lee and his Service Dog "Sayge" are looking forward to saying thank you in person and sharing why this mission matters so much.

Thank you, Sjoberg Tool & Mfg Corp, for standing with those who stood for us.

Sometimes the best support is a dog who learns to watch your six, so you don’t have to carry that weight alone.

About half of veterans say one of the hardest parts of leaving the military is the loss of a sense of purpose, and nearly as many say they miss their connection to the military community. The military provides a structure that decides when you wake up, what you wear, what you eat, how you spend your day, and losing that can leave people feeling adrift.

As our Community and Programs Manager, Jenn Collins is not just handing veterans a new map. She’s helping them find their own north star, figure out how they want to grow, and build their path from there.

When you’re lacking purpose, that’s a moment to be of service.

At Sierra Delta, that has looked like showing up for new members, spreading the word about our programs, joining our team of community leaders, and even hosting a local meetup for veterans.

We appreciate every member in this community who is finding ways to take the lead, for themselves, for Sierra Delta, for other veterans, and for every community they’re part of.

Sierra Delta is one option to do this, but it’s not the only way. Find yours, whatever that looks like, and go be of service.

We’re learning that purpose isn’t something you wait for. It’s something that comes when you take action.

If you’re starting from zero, a lot. If you already have the dog or would be open to adopting one, there’s a more accessible solution.

You can apply for a grant, find a local trainer, and start your journey with ASAP.

$3,500 covers a trainer who already knows your town, your vet, and can meet your dog nearby. It doesn’t cover a facility that’s never met either of you. That’s the entire reason the number looks so different from what you’d find searching “service dog cost.”

And that’s why Sierra Delta can deploy funding faster and more effectively than anyone else.

18 holes ⛳️🏌🏾‍♂️one mission, and a room full of people who showed up for it.

Our annual Golf Classic at Silver Spring Country Club wasn’t just a good time, it was proof of how many people are willing to put their support behind veterans and their dogs.

To everyone who played, sponsored, bid, or just showed up to cheer us on: thank you đź’™ This community shows up loud, and this tournament was proof of it.

See you next year!
