23.01.2022 It’s the best thing that has happened to me in a very long time. He has given me the confidence to get out of my house, go to shopping centres, doctors’ appointments we get out every day and go to the beach often. He’s my friend, a true mate and I could not do without him. Thanks to RSB’s Andrew and the wider OPK9 community for their support also. Rod (Veteran and RSB OPK9 ambassador) on life since Veiko joined it. It is with respect and appreciation that the RSB Operatio...n K9 program today recognises members of the ADF both past and present, and we thank them for their service. The OPK9 program is also pleased that we can provide Assistance Dogs to help those who are left with PTSD related trauma as a consequence of their service. We are privileged to serve those who have served us. #RemembranceDay #OPK9 #rsb #SeeDifferently #Veteran #PTSD #AssistanceDog #GuideDog SA Power Networks Employee Foundation

It's pretty special. https://bit.ly/2SJbflJ

05.01.2022 Not all heroes wear capes (but some wear RSB coats). RSB breeding dog and mum to our recent K-Litter, Primrose, alerted owners to a home invasion in the early hours this morning. #SeeDifferently #SAPOL #AssistanceDog #Hero #GoldenRetriever #RSB #Win Adelaide City Kia

05.01.2022 Hand rails = More than a spot to park your bike. Shout out to SA Infrastructure and Transport for helping those who rely on the hand rails to see. #SeeDifferently #Vision #See #VisionLoss #Bike #RSB #LittleThings

04.01.2022 A HUGE thank you to the Hilton RSL Sub Branch - Official who raised $5,000 for RSB's OPK9 Program. The money was raised through a lot of sausage sizzles and other fundraising activities. Andrew from RSB's OPK9 team was delighted to receive the cheque at the branch and talk to the group all about the program. The OPK9 Assistance dog program continutes to deliver real clinical results for our returned veterans experiencing PTS.
