This story

After leaving the Army in 2012, Sonny experienced homelessness and struggled with post-traumatic stress disorder before seeking help. He found solace in walking his dog, Delta, which led him to create an app connecting dog owners with walkers. Today, he partners with the organisation that supported him, donating profits and encouraging other veterans to consider dog walking.
