Meet AERC’s Newest Teammate Striker
In partnership with the Colorado Springs Switchbacks and Canine Companions
AERC is excited to announce a partnership with the Colorado Springs Switchbacks and Canine Companions in a young puppy’s quest to become a service dog.
Last year the Switchbacks welcomed a new teammate to the clubhouse. Striker is an adorable puppy, dubbed the name by fans last season, is on a journey to become a service dog with Canine Companions. Over the past several months, Striker has been working on mastering basic skills like sit, stay, and socialization, essential skills of any great service dog.
Canine Companions service dogs are expertly trained in over 40 commands and are matched with children, adults, and veterans with disabilities free of charge. These dogs assist with daily tasks such as retrieving dropped items, opening and closing doors and drawers, turning on and off lights, and much more to enhance independence for people with disabilities. To get there, it takes nearly two years of hard work and love, starting at the very beginning as adorable puppies.

“My drawings are interpretations of what I see and feel. I use several layers of graphite pencil or other dry media to create realistic pets, portraits, landscapes, and architecture. A majority of my artwork has stemmed from the deceased with most being family pets. I hold much empathy for the tragedy and loss I see. My goal is to provide closure, memorialize with peace of mind and soul, and to bring hope for what’s next, with the art I create. In heartfelt compassion, I offer a 10% discount for sketches of departed family members and pets. I try to capture the spirit in every piece and hope to bring the emotion, thoughts, and tranquility of the subject to the viewer.”
