Prestigious Waggy Award goes to Shelter to Soldier founder, Graham Bloem
Graham Bloem, founder of San Diego-based nonprofit Shelter to Soldier, received the 2016 Tailwaggers Foundation’s Waggy Award for community service at a celebration in Hollywood.
Bloem founded the nonprofit four years ago to rescue and train dogs from local shelters to become psychiatric service animals for post-9/11 injured combat veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury.
