Splints & Whiskey is stoked to present Joe Gionti & CEO, K9 Heroes 4 Heroes:

Driven by a lifelong respect for those who serve our country and communities, I founded K9 Heroes 4 Heroes to honor and support Veterans and First Responders through the healing power of service dogs. My deep-rooted patriotism was shaped early on by family, friends, and mentors who dedicated their lives to service—whether on the battlefield or in our neighborhoods.

My time at the Virginia Military Institute further solidified this commitment, as I witnessed classmates take the oath to defend our nation. Though I ultimately took a different path, my desire to give back never wavered. That calling found new purpose when I began training my own dog and discovered a passion for canine behavior and service work.

Partnering with Ridgeside K9 Ashtabula, I immersed myself in professional training techniques and laid the foundation for K9 Heroes 4 Heroes. To bring this mission to life, I welcomed Loki into my family—not only as my personal service dog, but as the proud ambassador of our organization.

At K9 Heroes 4 Heroes, we believe Heeling is Healing. Our mission is simple: to provide highly trained service dogs to Veterans and First Responders at no cost, empowering them to reclaim independence, confidence, and peace.
