FUR POWER
Strength Stands Watch
“I have loved dogs my whole life, long before I understood they could become the thin line between life and death. This site is everything I wish someone had given me 18 years ago when I started my adventure into having and training Service Dogs. This is my way of giving back to the veterans and ex-police who often feel forgotten, and who gave everything in service and are still fighting the moral and physical injuries they brought home. On this page you will find my hard-learned lessons, advice, and possibly even a furry little friend of your own who will stand watch beside you.”

WHERE TO START
My story. Your journey. No fluff, no gatekeeping.
Brooklyn 99 Litter was born Monday, March 2, 2026.
A few recent moments from the litter. Weekly behavior notes still live on our Puppy Analysis page.
Part of me still wants to keep every one of these puppies here and carry them deep toward six months the way you picture when you finally have your pick of the litter. The truth I kept dodging — even after decades in dogs — is that I cannot do that work alone, not the way they are owed, not while I still need my own service dog beside me in public. It took me far too long to say that out loud to myself.
So they need to move toward their next homes sooner than my heart would write on a calendar. Here is the mercy in it: they are doing beautifully — leash manners, public outings, strangers and noise without that brittle fear. Most days I look at this bunch and believe most of them, if not all, could grow into remarkable service dogs in the right hands.
