About Ziggy

Ziggy is a remarkable Assistance Dog who supports his Veteran, Richard, a former Army Medic who was diagnosed with PTSD after serving in Iraq.

With extraordinary dedication and skill, Ziggy helps Richard to undertake tasks which would prove to be  very challenging without Ziggy’s calming and supportive influence.

They have become great role models for Assistance Dogs, championing greater awareness of their work and also generating greater awareness of mental health issues.

Richard and Ziggy became Ambassadors for The Veterans Charity in 2021.
