Operation Overwatch is a 501(c)3 nonprofit Service Dog training program started by Marine Corps veteran Kennelmaster Sgt Brice Cavanaugh. With a team of skilled trainers and access to clinical therapists, Operation Overwatch offers a Service Dog training and treatment program for veterans and first responders suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and/or Traumatic Brain Injury as well as mitigating the effects of impaired mobility.
We believe in "Healing at Both Ends of the Leash". We rescue dogs from shelters across the United States and train them to become skilled Service Dogs for veterans and first responders that we refer to as the "Warrior Class". A large part of our training process is focusing on the relationship and bond between servicemen or servicewomen and their companion.
We find that every person with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or Traumatic Brain Injury reacts differently with the help of a Service Dog, so we train your companion to specifically address your needs.
