Arthur Lee Johnson US Army / Desert Storm
My name is Arthur Lee Johnson and this is my dog Penny. I have severe combat PTSD. Before I got Penny and starting service dog training with Operation Dog Tag, I would sit inside my home and just try to survive. With this special training and Penny by my side, I am able to get out again and feel like living. Sometimes things aren’t always easier, but Penny gives me the confidence needed to cope with situations without having an anxiety attack. Penny helps give me that confidence I need to function in society. Thanks to my Penny who is also my battle buddy, and the awesome training we are receiving from Joe Scheffer at Operation Dog Tag.
