Sierra Delta is a Not for Profit Community Based Member Network focused on providing support to our Military Veterans and Active Duty Service Members with curated Dog training grants and education and rewarding Service opportunities and community connection.
Sierra Delta stands for “Service” and “Dog”. We use the Nato Alphabet nomenclature because we provide Service and Dog training access and opportunities to those who served in the US Military. We rely on Member Supporters to generate the resources needed to provide these services to our verified military veterans and active duty.
Sierra Delta offers Dog Training Grants and Education via the Life Buddy program. Within the Life Buddy program members can access education modules about a variety of dog training curriculum and therapies.
Our Military Members can access dog training grants within 3 categories 1. Basic Training (Basic Obedience, Assessments, Refreshers, Puppy Classes, etc.) 2. Advanced Training (Canine Good Citizen, Emotional Support, PTSD, etc.) 3. Medical Assistance Training (Medical Service Dog)
Sierra Delta contracts with Professional Dog Trainers across the US streamline access for Basic and Advanced Training and with approved Service Dog Trainers to efficiently and effectively ensure ADA compliance.
Sierra Delta provides training and resources to help Veterans train an existing dog, to choose a dog that they acquire via adoption, and Sierra Delta provides a network of approved partners to help the veteran acquire or grant the veteran a dog that can best serve their individual needs and lifestyle.
Sierra Delta provides the education and the network so that the Veterans are empowered to decide what type of approved dog training and dog is best for their needs and lifestyle. Sierra Delta has built a network of support that connects veterans to rescues, breeders, dog organizations, and more, who want to help provide the right dog as well as establish direct contracts to approved professional dog trainers to ensure the veteran is supported on their Life Buddy journey that best meets their individual needs and lifestyle.
Sierra Delta believes that ALL Dogs have the potential to impact a Veteran’s life in a positive way especially when paired with the structure of a training program and an engaged community to celebrate accomplishments and inspire new ideas and practices to live life with a dog as a teammate, a Life Buddy. A Life Buddy can be a pet or a tested service dog and everything in between.
Training is constant, like finances, fitness, spirituality, and other essential human practices. Sierra Delta provides Members access to information, best practices, and how to create a Life Buddy team with their dogs through exclusive digital content and how to classes. To our Veterans, Sierra Delta provides Life Buddy grants to ensure our Veterans get professional support to build their ideal Life Buddy team.

It means something to be a Member of the United States Armed Forces. That “meaning” is derived from Serving others and through enduring hard work with a team of people also as dedicated to Service to others. Sierra Delta believes that this “hard work” is essential to achieving overall wellness and that it is best “endured” with others. The Life Force is where the Sierra Delta Community of Members and Veterans can come together and “endure” some “hard work” together in their local communities to bring leadership and volunteerism to our local initiatives while simultaneously raising awareness to what it means to Serve others and to the many ways Dogs contribute to the epic lives of our Veterans.
Service improves our self worth and the self worth of those in need of service.
