Beamer’s Journey: From Training to Transforming a Veteran’s Life

Beamer is a proud Fetch It Forward service dog, supported by the Dogtopia Foundation and funded through the generosity of Dogtopia of Viera pet parents. Through engaging, fun in-store activities, our pet parents contribute to a powerful mission—helping dogs like Beamer become life-changing companions for military veterans.

The Dogtopia Foundation empowers service dog programs that transform lives, and Beamer is a shining example. He was acquired from U.S. Veterans Service Dogs and trained by professional trainer Denae Jernukian. After completing his intensive service dog training, Beamer was matched with his Warrior, Harold, on October 7, 2022. The pair officially graduated on October 20, 2022.

Thanks to your continued support, dogs like Beamer are giving veterans the opportunity for healing, independence, and a brighter future.
