A special thanks to the men and women who serve this country!
"A Minnesota army veteran and father-of-five who suffered silently from the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has a life line in his service dog, Jed.
Carl Ringberg returned from a tour in Iraq in Afghanistan in 2013.... In his transition to civilian life, he began suffering “anger issues, emotional numbness, flashbacks, nightmares,” he told the news channel.
Initially, the Burnsville man tried medications to relieve his symptoms, but nothing worked so he decided to look for another tool to treat his PTSD. After researching service dog programs, he found Helping Paws and his golden retriever, Jed. Six-year-old Jed was having trouble being placed for separation anxiety issues, which made the bond between the pair even more meaningful."
