VCIA Service Dog

Veterans Canine Intelligence Academy is a nonprofit 501(C)(3) organization based in Southern California with a nationwide reach, dedicated to training Southern California disabled military veterans and first responders and their dogs to become a team with the purpose of assisting the veteran with his/her disability.

Disabled veterans partnered with service dogs develop greater self-esteem, responsibility, confidence and acceptance in social situations. A dog makes it easy for people to relate to the person, not their disability.

Through generous supporters like you, we can continue to help veterans with disabilities at NO CHARGE, to regain their independence. The tasks and support service dogs provide to the disabled veteran are life changing.

View a video to hear VCIA President Andy McTigue explain the program and its mission.

The Veterans Canine Intelligence Academy relies on public support to continue its mission.
