Hi! I’m Raider, a 2 year old lab mix adopted from Labs & More! I have a VERY special job where I’m training to be a Ship Morale Dog! I’ve already visited some crewmen on USS Makin Island shortly after adoption and you can tell I’ve been the talk of the ship since then! I’m already so great at my new job, all I want to do is say hi to everyone and as soon as I see someone, I’m asking for belly rubs.

Hi! I’m Lady! I’m a 2 year old lab mix the Shelter to Soldier team adopted from Labs & More under the generous Red Star Sponsorship of the Mission Beach Women’s Club!
When I was adopted, I was lucky enough to be fostered by one of the amazing volunteers at Shelter to Soldier. I originally began training in the psychiatric service dog program, but after some time, the Shelter to Soldier Board of Directors and the Mission Beach Women’s Club saw my potential to make an even bigger impact. That’s when I made a career change and proudly became the second official Shelter to Soldier Morale Dog!
Now, I’m getting ready to visit the USS Boxer as part of my transition to living on board full-time. I’m beyond excited for this new chapter and can’t wait to bring comfort, smiles, and a little extra joy to everyone aboard the ship.
