A former Army Ranger with the 1<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">st<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Ranger Battalion, Randy had trouble acclimating to life after service. He says, \u201cAs a veteran who has struggled with the readjustment from the traumas of war to being a father, employee, volunteer, friend, and citizen, I have found difficulty through the years having the self-awareness to understand when I am struggling with anxiety, reacting to my daily environment, and learning about my own feelings.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21662\" style=\"width: 490px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21662\" class=\"wp-image-21662 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_0126.jpg\" alt=\"A man stands in a yard smiling with his hand on the head of his emotional support dog.\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_0126.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_0126-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_0126-400x533.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_0126-250x333.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_0126-200x267.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_0126-100x133.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_0126-76x101.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG_0126-50x67.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21662\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Randy and his emotional support dog, Shadow.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He first heard about R22 when another Ranger veteran posted about his service dog on a Facebook of local Rangers. Randy says, \u201cI thought about the benefits that one of these animals might bring to my own family after seeing how this veteran benefitted from his service K9.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He investigated the organization and liked how their services were set up. \u201cRescue 22, through their programming and pairing, teaches the handler how the animal thinks, and how to continue their training at home.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was matched with Shadow, a Belgian Malinois trained in emotional support, who he now considers a member of his family. \u201cWe wrestle, laugh at his personality, include him in most every activity of our daily lifestyle, and enjoy the fullness that he brings to our family.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shadow helps Randy focus and calm down when he gets anxious. He also makes sure that Randy takes regular breaks from his work. \u201cShadow is very much in tune with what I am feeling and how my environment effects me daily. If I\u2019m on a phone call that is stressful to me, Shadow will come to me in the conversation and check on me, letting me know that he sees something has changed in my voice, or emotions during that phone call and gently intervenes by refocusing my attention to him to disrupt the anxiousness that I am experiencing. I always call these experiences because anxiety is not just something that I feel, it is an experience. This trust that we share is so valuable.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shadow isn\u2019t just attuned to Randy\u2019s emotions and physical health. He also helps Randy feel more comfortable in public settings. \u201cI have always struggled with feeling safe in and out of our home as well and have often found myself checking doors, being awakened by noises, or positioning myself in public settings to minimizes foot traffic near me; which subsequently minimizes the opportunity for me to interact with other people, socially.\u201d Having Shadow has not only helped him open his world to people, but he\u2019s helped him feel comfortable in public.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI have learned to surrender the tasks of being a \u2018sentinel\u2019 to Shadow. He hears things I would never be able to hear and is aware of \u2018danger\u2019 long before I would ever even recognize it. If I am in public, I feel safe enough with him even to close my eyes to meditate as I know Shadow is watching my environment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shadow also helps ease Randy\u2019s worries about safety by working as a watchdog at home. He notifies him about what\u2019s going on around his house and yard by barking in different ways. \u201cOne morning Shadow woke me with a very aggressive, rapid bark letting me know someone was near the home. It was 3:27 AM and it immediately woke me from my deep sleep. I didn\u2019t worry about having to arm myself, I didn\u2019t concern myself where the person was in my yard.\u201d He was able to keep from getting too worried because Shadow stopped barking, letting him know that the threat was over. He says, \u201cPreviously, this would have been a serious interruption where I would be checking video cameras, checking the yard, bushes, etc. because a motion light was tripped.\u201d But he relaxed, knowing that he could trust Shadow. When he looked at his security footage the next morning, he saw that people had been on his property checking to see if his truck was locked, but that they had gone as soon as they\u2019d heard Shadow bark.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s safe to say that getting matched with Shadow has changed Randy\u2019s life for the better.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI hope for people to know about the work of Rescue 22 so that they understand the value that amazing animals, paired with the right training, can provide. These animals are so smart, well trained, disciplined, intentional, and purposeful that I wish I only knew about their services sooner.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.customink.com\/fundraising\/rescue-22-veterans-day?side=front&amp;type=1&amp;zoom=false\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21660 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3000\" height=\"3000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-1920x1920.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-1680x1680.jpeg 1680w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-1240x1240.jpeg 1240w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-860x860.jpeg 860w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-680x680.jpeg 680w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-500x500.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-400x400.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-250x250.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-200x200.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-100x100.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-76x76.jpeg 76w, https:\/\/www.customink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/EI4d1WYWkAEd0m6-50x50.jpeg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rescue 22 is running a t-shirt fundraiser so that they can help more people like Randy.
