having just re read lucky Jim 2 again i was wondering if anyone could recommend stories surrounding wounded warriors from either what ever caused the injury or from rehabilitation onwards etc i would in particular like recommendations for dog handlers/training/breeding if there are any for the services etc thank-you in advance
Dual Writers Florida Friends series has MC(Chuck Johnson)as a handicapped vet who becomes a US Deputy Marshall but no dogs,sorry.
Dual Writers Florida Friends
Steve Sharp was also a handicapped vet I believe. I don't know how much of a disability the loss of normal function of that leg would amount to however. But it was because of a war wound.
i have loved and read the florida friends seris several times and im waiting for more from the series in the future
IF you can find a copy, A Country Boy Can Survive by JRyter would fit the bill perfectly, but he's pulled all his stories but one. You may be able to find it on the Wayback Machine or elsewhere.
Wayback Machine only works as a preview of SOL. To read the full story, you have to login, and that's impossible on Wayback Machine.

Not dog handling but the Saint Clair stories from Todd_d172 and 'Melodic Redemption' by oyster50 center around people who took serious wounds in battle and are now trying to deal with it.
Not normally one to hype my own, but I have one.
No service dogs in this one, but a wounded Vet and his struggles.

Objection! There was any number of old seadogs in that one :o)
I sit corrected!
Thinking about it, Return From the Dark Side would also qualify - with the usual caveat - as would His Lucky Star.
