Hans Lynette Loomis

Hans is an inspiring true story about the challenges of American veterans returning to civilian life and a puppy saved from a kill shelter. Some of the veterans incurred physical injures, and all bear emotional scars from which they are healing. Unemployment, discouragement, drug use and a sense of despair followed many veterans home. They found hope and help in a unique place in Rochester, NY, at Veterans Outreach Center. Hundreds of miles away, a black lab puppy in a kill shelter was yearning for a second chance, a safe place to live and people who would love him. His docile nature and natural eagerness to please prompted dog rescue volunteers to place him with Veterans Outreach Center. Hans has become part of the healing process for veterans and is wonderfully content living with his buddies.
