Just a month earlier, he had barely made eye contact. Years of silent struggle with post-traumatic stress had left him withdrawn and isolated. However, on that day, with Claire, a 13-month-old German Shepherd standing beside him, Roger had transformed into a stronger, more confident version of himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The moment was especially meaningful for Marty and Jennifer, founders of The Phoenix Charity. For years, professional photographers had captured the beauty of horse shows across the South. When the pandemic forced one of those shows to close, the couple saw an opportunity to create something that would change people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOut of the ashes of an old horse show rose The Phoenix Charity,\u201d Jennifer said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe wanted to keep helping people, and veterans were always on our hearts. Marty\u2019s a veteran, my family\u2019s full of them \u2014 it just made sense.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The organization\u2019s mission is to provide fully trained service dogs to U.S. veterans and first responders at no cost. No one on their team earns a salary. The charity is funded entirely by an annual horse show and donations. One trained service dog is worth $30,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/4-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24653\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/4-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/4-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/4-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photography by Ashleigh Newnes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Marty, a military veteran himself, has spent more than 30 years navigating the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. That experience \u2014 and his frustration with how countless veterans have fallen through the cracks \u2014 fuels his mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur government won\u2019t help, so I will,\u201d Marty expressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through The Phoenix Charity, he channels his innate talent of working with dogs into life-changing partnerships with Veterans. The charity\u2019s four-legged heroes \u2014 Belgian Malinois, German shepherds, Labrador retrievers, and border collies \u2014 come from kennels like psychiatric service dog kennels, or PSD kennels, in Mississippi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTraining begins at 8 weeks and focuses on much more than obedience. Service dogs learn to navigate crowds, handle noise, and even sense their handler\u2019s heart rate changes before the person does. These dogs are trained to transfer calm and make broken moments whole,\u201d Marty explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen the veteran can\u2019t handle a situation, the dog can. They\u2019re the steady ones.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The transformations that unfold through The Phoenix Charity are nothing short of miraculous. Sandy, a Vietnam War veteran, finally sleeps better at night \u2014 thanks to Phoenix, his 8-month-old German shepherd that gently wakes him when the 40-year-old recurring nightmare haunts him from time to time. Morgan, a nurse living with multiple sclerosis, found newfound independence through Khan, a 100-pound Belgian Malinois who helps her with balance, applying makeup, and getting up when she falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/5-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24654\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/5-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/5-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/5-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photography by Ashleigh Newnes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked how the dogs are matched with the veterans, Marty said, \u201cGod is pretty good at picking out veterans. I&#8217;m pretty good at picking out dogs.\u201d Marty dedicates nearly all his time to training, while Jennifer supports their home and manages administrative needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;A lot of praying keeps us going,&#8221; Jennifer said. &#8220;Running the charity has been the most challenging and beautiful thing we&#8217;ve ever done.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve had people just walk up and hand us checks,&#8221; Marty said with a soft chuckle. &#8220;The right people will hear about it. God will provide.&#8221; Every dollar funds food, training, and veterinary care for dogs that provide unconditional love and a bridge back to connection. &#8220;They don&#8217;t judge,&#8221; he added. &#8220;They never have a bad day.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jennifer has seen the truth firsthand while watching Marty with his own service dog, Doc. &#8220;Doc does something for him that no human could,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The charity runs entirely on faith and community generosity. Their annual horse show funds most of the work, but volunteers are always needed for kennel cleaning, dog walking, and &#8220;spa days.&#8221; Donations go directly toward dog care, training, and placement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/6-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/6-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/6-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/tullahoma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2026\/01\/6-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photography by Ashleigh Newnes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>More than anything, Marty and Jennifer hope for awareness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cListen to veterans,\u201d Marty urged. \u201cStop telling them what they need to do.
