Video: FACE Success Story Jax and His “Dad” Luis
Back in March we introduced you to a very special dog who we had the honor of helping with a grant for emergency veterinary care.
Jax is a certified service dog for Luis, a military veteran who struggles with PTSD. They were both seriously injured in a car accident with a drunk wrong-way driver.
Both Jax and Luis needed extensive medical treatment. While Luis was hospitalized, Jax was also getting the veterinary care he needed.
A FACE grant helped Luis and his family pay for Jax’s treatment.
It’s been a long road to recovery for both Jax and Luis, but we are so happy to report that they are doing well.
Jax, Luis, Jax’s “sister” and the law enforcement officer who responded to the scene of the accident were honored guests at our recent golf tournament fundraiser, where we premiered this moving video detailing their story.
Thank you to everyone who supports our mission to save critically ill and injured pets in San Diego!
