Vermont Paws & Boots

Vermont Paws & Boots Our mission: Rebuilding Heroes one Paw Print at a Time. Veterans ⭐️ First Responders ⭐️ Rescue Dogs

Vermont Paws & Boots was established to assist our Military Veterans & First Responders who have sustained various disabilities through their service to our country and communites. Vermont Paws & Boots partners rescue dogs with individuals in need and trains them to work as a team. Creating a bond between these two allows for both to once again thrive. Vermont Paws & Boots was founded by a Militar

y Veteran with over 30 years of Police experience including 11 years as an award winning K-9 handler/instructor. Michelle has just recently retired from the State of Vermont after serving 22 years as a State Trooper. Due to her passion for working dogs and those who serve she saw a need for a program such as this to exist in Vermont. Vermont historically has the most deployed military personnel and fallen veterans per capita. National studies have also shown that Police officers and Firefighters can be equally affected by the trauma they are exposed to on a daily basis. Michelle recognized this situation and used her training and experience as an opportunity to fulfill her passion assisting Veterans, First responders, and canines.

Help needed: We are looking for a volunteer arborist or just simply somebody who knows how to plant trees better than me. Due to no fault of ours, but we have had to cut down many dead / infected trees on this property that were not cared for. We are now getting ready to replant some new trees thanks to the amazing folks at Lundgren Subaru of Bennington and the donation of 5 trees. Is there anyone that could PM me to help with this? I will buy whatever supplies we need, but I just want do this right and give these little trees the best chance they have to thrive over the next 50+ years. . Thank you Michelle 🐾
