Our Animals

After lots of thought, it has been decided that Major has found his forever home at the Righteous Life Rescue Ranch. Matt and Major have developed a special bond, so Major will now be serving as Matt's personal service dog. 

 Major was the first dog to be enrolled in the RLRR service dog training program. He is a 3-year old long-haired German Shepherd. Major found himself in a local humane society after biting a 16-year old girl. He was full of unchanneled energy and zero discipline when he first arrived at the ranch.  

 Major has now been living with us for the last 9 months and his transformation is astounding. He learned how to channel his energy into his role as a service dog. Now, Major is handled completely off leash to ensure he can perform all tasks for his handler. He is trained to go everywhere with his handler from grocery stores to hiking to relaxing at home. 

 Most importantly, Major has been trained to identify signs of depression commonly seen in veterans suffering with PTSD. The last part of Major's training will be tailoring him to his specific person's triggers. If you, or a veteran you know, could benefit from a dog like Major, please get in touch with us to determine if he would be the right fit.
