K-9 Spotlight: Buddy

Buddy 20260323_105653-1K9 Veteran Buddy to be honored at SNU's K9 Veterans Day Celebration

Southern Nazarene University (SNU) will be recognizing Veteran service dog, Buddy, at its annual K-9 Veterans Day Celebration at Scissortail Park’s Robinson Lawn from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 28, 2026.

Buddy, a black poodle, serves as a service dog and companion to United States military Veteran Ruth (pictured together above). Buddy and Ruth completed service dog training at VERSA K-9 for Vets of NE Oklahoma, an organization that assists disabled veterans and emergency personnel with service dogs and service dog training. Buddy and Ruth graduated from the program in the winter of 2024.

We are excited to honor Buddy during our K-9 Veterans Day Celebration and extend our thanks to Ruth for allowing Buddy to be part of this special day.
