A local realtor on San Antonio’s facilities bond committee said there was no justification to include money for a questionable K9 nonprofit in the city’s latest bond package.
“That is my concern, and that should be everybody’s concern, because if we talk about accountability and these numbers changing now, and then we give them ‘x’ amount of money, five years from now how do we go back and see what they’ve done?” asked Neff.
“And I’ve yet to hear people say that this is not within the lawful purpose. In fact, it was vetted by our attorneys and it was vetted by a committee of citizens, not just me,” said Pelaez, whose friendship with K9s For Warriors CEO Rory Diamond goes back a half-decade, when both were part of thePelaez further defended the possible expansion by stating that the project consists of a brick and mortar building on city property.
The veteran credited his K9s For Warriors service dog, Molly, with reducing his fear and night terrors. “It’s an outlier to have the veterans train the dogs themselves. That’s an unusual circumstance,” said Diamond, who defended his group’s practice of introducing the veteran to his or her service dog later in the training process.
K9s For Warriors’ lease with the city calls for it to make good-faith efforts to pull a minimum of 200 dogs from ACS a year, a benchmark it has yet to reach in San Antonio. K9s For Warriors officials have requested that corrections be made to the article, but as of April 15 had not heard back from the paper’s publisher, a program spokesman said.
