    If a man needs to get a job done he can't depend on a woman, he just has to do the job himself, said every single guy everywhere, and many married guys as well.

    Wait! wait! wait! a woman's place is to be seen not heard, and your voice has gotten pretty bold and brazen lately. Where is that cute submissive little yoga bender?
    and where are those pics of you in a garter and stockings that I clearly heard Mongo request?

    When I got the text I thought it might be BWW sending me yet another dick pic. IMG_0347.jpg

    I was there representing K9s for Veterans nfp and the Bears graciously gave us a spot to collect donations in the United Club. We explained our mission and continue to spread awareness for PTSD.

    Wow, that's huge tuna!! Way to get the word out and to fund raise at the same time!

    Oh sorry. I forgot I'm supposed to stay quiet. Please forgive me Master.

    Even as we were packed up and leaving walking to the door we had people handing us money, and I'm talking about $100s and $50s, we had a great day. We've come a long way in the past year. Our exposure has grown and our footprint has gotten bigger, and I've been taking calls from all over the country from veterans wanting to join our program. As of right now, our program is more localized to the 3 state area, but we've had talk of expanding it and perhaps offering zoom sessions, but that comes with substantial cost. While I don't automatically dismiss those out of area, because during the course of our conversation I can tell when a veteran feels defeated and needs immediate help and the VAs solution seems to be pillem' and push them out the door. I will find an organization near them and reach out and direct them to it. I will also follow up and touch base with them from time to time and ask how things are going. I love this country, but man I tell you it sucks in how we treat our veterans.

    This is absolutely staggering, considering where you and a handful of people started.
    By the way, did I win the motorcycle raffle? ;)

    I think the NFL should give you or a rep of KDS for Veterans season tickets so you could continue to provide this service AND get to watch some football at the same time.
    You are really amazing tuna.

    I agree but it usually leads to a sore neck.

    No, you can only go to the well so often before it runs dry. You need to expand and find different revenue avenues. The Cubs flat out dismissed us (fuck the Cubs), and with the White Sox, we missed their window for acceptance this year so hopefully next year. The Boeing Corporation has been huge for us both last year and this year, and by far our biggest continued supporter. We have a couple of small companies that donate a portion of their proceeds to us, Corspice, and the 1791 Candle Company, and from time to time various other organizations step up and sponsor a veteran team. The reward with me comes from working directly with the pairing of the veteran teams and working directly with their training, and seeing what a difference it makes immediately. Seeing people that were so pulled back prior and now opening up in class joking around with many others that suffer from many of the same issues. We maintain a loose atmosphere, and while many similar organizations encourage family members to stay away during a training class we actually welcome it. I feel it is an unreasonable request and certainly one that isn't grounded in the reality of the situation. We are, after all, family.

    I just think that the numbers are there. If you had a representative at different games during the season you could get some serious donations.
    I think the work that your team and you do is amazing. You are giving back in a huge way. Helping vets learn how to get back on their feet and to learn how to cope. That must be both rewarding as well as frustrating. The fact that there are such high numbers of vets who need this help is heart breaking.

    My father was a veteran. He started drinking when he volunteered at the age of 17 and became an alcoholic. He could never talk about his war experiences. He was suffering from cirrhosis of the liver when a car accident took his life. I think he preferred it that way.

    It's just something they just won't ordinarily volunteer because oftentimes they don't want to appear broken or don't want to relive a past they can't forget. Instead, it stays bottled up and It builds and builds, and that often leads to suicide. While we don't cure these feelings, having a dog redirects these feelings of anguish and comforts them when it is needed. Rush Presbyterian a hospital that we have worked with has a wonderful but yet difficult program called "Road Home" for those that need help getting through, and helping them cope.

    It sounds like your organization is getting more support than you were even a year ago. Good work tuna!
