In 2016, America’s VetDogs quickly became a household name when an adorable black lab puppy came running out behind a curtain announcing a partnership with NBC’s TODAY Show for their first future service dog in training and our first Puppy with a Purpose®. This exclusive program acts as a fundraising, awareness, and training campaign for the organization, drawing a national spotlight to the work of America’s VetDogs and the philanthropic work of the partner. The TODAY Show’s partnership became a catalyst that sparked relationships with professional sports teams including: New York Islanders, Washington Capitals, Atlanta United Soccer Club, Houston Texans, New York Mets, And Nashville Soccer Club; Media outlets such as numerous NBC News stations across the country, The Dodo, WBAL-TV NBC News Baltimore, and various corporate entities like Deloitte, Pen Fed Credit Union, and more.
