(ROCKWALL, TX – May 3, 2015) Retired Colonel Keith Young will be the featured speaker at the May 12th meeting of Friends of the Rockwall County Library. In addition to telling the audience about the Patriot PAWS organization, Colonel Young will bring a service dog.
He will answer questions about who trains the service dogs, what it cost to train a dog, how the organization gets funding, who should apply for a service dog, and tell the audience how they can help.
