K9 Xanny reunites with his handler, Chris Mortin, in 2015. Gizmo’s Gift provided transport for Xanny from Washington D.C. to Fort Hood, TX after he served as a Military Working Dog for the U.S. Army. |
Gizmo’s Gift was founded by Army veteran and Northeast Lakeview College (NLC) graduate Lisa Phillips who was inspired to create Gizmo’s Gift after writing an essay for her Composition I class under the guidance of NLC English instructor Jennifer Riske. This essay helped lay the groundwork for Ms. Phillips’s involvement with Congress to reclassify Military Working Dogs (MWDs) from “equipment” to Canine Members of the Armed Forces.
