Celebrating WCC’s Class of 2025

Warrior Canine Connection proudly celebrated the 2025 Graduation of its Veteran Service Dog Teams and assistance dogs on September 20 — and what a celebration it was! The virtual ceremony tugged at heartstrings with touching stories from Veterans and volunteers, this year’s Wag of the Tail Award winners and inspiring keynote remarks from U.S. Army Veteran and Maryland Governor Wes Moore.

The festivities didn’t stop online — more than 600 members of the WCC community gathered in person at the WCC Healing Quarters in Boyds, Maryland. Guests traveled from near and far to enjoy delicious food and pup-friendly treats, live music, photo booth, tours of our beautifully renovated barn, and most importantly, to connect and celebrate the incredible achievements of our Veterans and military families and the dogs who support them. This year’s event was made paw-sible thanks to the love and dedication of our volunteers and supporters.

Congratulations to all our graduates, and a huge thank-you to the volunteers and supporters who make this life-changing work possible!
