Thin Line Service Dogs (TLSD) is a pioneering organization that provides service dogs to First Responders and Veterans at no cost. Our goal is to train dogs to enhance the lives of the heroes who have selflessly served. We select and train assistant, mental health, medical health and facility service dogs.
