My story: Finding peace in helping other veterans

May 15, 2023

Every Tuesday morning, I drive 15 minutes from my home in Swannanoa to Asheville to volunteer with Warrior Canine Connection, a nonprofit that breeds, trains and places highly skilled service dogs with veterans with visible and invisible wounds.

As a U.S. Army veteran, I have become intimately familiar with the important role service dogs can play in a veteran’s life. Read the full story in Mountain Xpress.

Nicholas Baird is a Marine Veteran.

“It started out as a volunteer opportunity, but it quickly turned into more; especially when I met Danny,” Baird said.
