This rescued dog made a tremendous impact on this veteran’s life. Here’s their story…
As a veteran of the Afghanistan war serving 3 tours, US Army Major Sean stands out for his bravery and dedication. As he integrated back in the U.S. after his last tour ended, Major Sean decided to explore the possibility of getting a dog to help him cope with the emotional tolls of war. Realizing he needed help, Sean reached out to Paws of War, and found solace and companionship in an unexpected form, a 2-year-old rescued puppy named Levi.
Sadly, the neglect in the puppy mill left Levi malnourished and afraid, so it would take some time for Levi to acclimate to Sean and his new surroundings. Levi was very timid at first and would not typically approach men, however, Levi took to Sean almost immediately. Levi began to sense he could trust Sean, and that he was now in a safe home. This helped Sean tremendously, as he now felt safe and not alone with his thoughts.
Levi will often sense when Sean is ‘feeling off’ or his PTSD is about to flair up, and will comfort Sean with a snuggle, letting him know everything will be ok. With Levi’s help and love, Sean has found new strength to confront the past and embrace a brighter future. For both Levi and Sean, they have found in each other not only a friend, but a lifeline as they guide each other in the journey ahead. Levi and Sean are Heroes Among Us.
