Robbie's 16th Birthday

benefitting Pets Healing Vets

Robbie's Story

For the past six years, Robbie has dedicated his birthday to bringing awareness to and raising funds for our nation’s heroes and the pets who help them heal.  Since 2019, Robbie has raised more than $175,000 for the Pets Healing Vets program. The program pairs shelter dogs and cats with qualifying Hoosier veterans suffering from PTSD or TBI at no cost to the veteran–for the life of the pet. It is vital and in many cases, life saving for both the veteran and the pet. These animals become constant companions for veterans in the program, a healing balm for the wounds no one can see.
