Congratulations to Our Sheep Dog University FY25 Q3 Ambassador Class Graduates!
Sheep Dog Impact Assistance (SDIA) is proud to celebrate the incredible graduates of Sheep Dog University (SDU) Class 003! These dedicated Sheep Dogs came together from across the nation for a three-day, intensive training at our headquarters and Heroes Ranch. Through classroom instruction, hands-on facility engagement, and practical field exercises, they sharpened their leadership, communication, and outreach skills to serve as powerful SDIA Ambassadors.
We are thrilled to welcome them to the team and can’t wait to see the impact they will make in their communities and beyond.
Inside Heroes Ranch: An of Adventure, Healing, & Growth for Heroes
Amazing Things Are Happening at Heroes Ranch!
This past week, Sheep Dog Impact Assistance welcomed a group of incredible veterans and first responders to Heroes Ranch for another unforgettable Outdoor Adventure. From trail rides and fishing to camaraderie around the campfire, it was a weekend filled with connection, healing, and rediscovering the best parts of life.
Outdoor Adventures is built to get veterans and first responders off the couch and back into living their best life — and that’s exactly what happened at Heroes Ranch. We’re #blessedbeyondmeasure to witness the resilience, strength, and spirit of those we serve.
Check out some of the moments we captured below!
Stay connected with us for more upcoming Outdoor Adventures and other opportunities to #getoffthecouch and thrive.
