Trigger’s Tribute

Trigger, the namesake

This program was birthed in memory of our beloved dog, Trigger.

Trigger was part of the family for 15 years, and the first dog in our VP’s adult life and career as a First Responder. Trigger was a loyal companion and always wanted to be by our side.

About the Tribute

This program was created to honor seriously injured or fallen First Responder pet families. First Responders give of themselves on a daily basis. In a crisis, they run toward the problem, sacrificing themselves to help others in critical need.

Through this program, we humbly honor First Responders and their families in this small way of coming to their aid, giving back to them and their beloved companion pets during their time of need. This program may offer various pet-related support services to the family as needed and deemed appropriate by the Hand & Paw Board.

Eligible First Responders include those serving locally - Police, Fire, EMS - as well as Military personnel.
