First Responder Therapy Dogs
Our profits, your charity
Giving to charity at checkout is a powerful fundraising tool. But instead of asking you to round up your receipt, we're inviting you to direct where our donations go.
How much is being donated is prominently featured on every product, so there's no guessing how much we're giving - it's real money making a real difference to our Working Dog partners.
Where is my donation going?
First Responder Therapy Dogs leads the way in addressing the mental health needs of the first responder community through the use of trained therapy dogs. We believe these dogs are conscious of the work they do, and we hope to provide them with additional funding to continue to save the lives of our comrades. When you select Hero Therapy Dogs as your charity at checkout, we will make a donation on your behalf directly to them.
Why donations matter
From every order, Engine 34 will make a donation to the charity of your choice. This donation is part of our Fueling Heroes™ Campaign which provides funding to working dogs across the United States.
Research shows therapy dogs can significantly reduce stress and anxiety, lower blood pressure, and elevate mood. This means our heroes can better focus on serving their communities while receiving the emotional support they deserve.
Why FRTD
Donations are used to bring therapy dog services to as many first responders as possible. First responder organizations rely on their services but do not fund them.
No Cost to Fire Departments
Often times, fire departments do not have a budget which allows for services such as FRTD. First Responder Therapy Dogs provides these dogs at no cost to fire departments and other response agencies.
