MORE ABOUT LOUIE & STAR: 

Louie Belluomini served in the Army for 9 years. He worked as a psychological operations specialist and military police officer during his time in the Army. He was honorably discharged as a Captain in 2015 after serving a tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. Louie suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder or more known as PTSD and a traumatic brain injury after his deployments and had decided to pursue a treatment plan involving a K9 when medication or counseling didn’t completely solve the issues or failed. Louie and Star were paired together by K9s for warriors, a non-profit program out of Florida that connects service dogs with veterans suffering from the same things Louie does. Star performs tasks for Louie that he cannot do on his own. 90% of the dogs from the program are rescue dogs. Their motto is put a new leash on life! Louie has worked as a paramedic in the local communities for the past 10 years. He currently works at Hanco EMS in Findlay, Ohio and as a paramedic at Putnam County EMS in Ottawa, Ohio. Louie has worked as a flight medic in his career and has deployed to Hurricane Katrina as a paramedic. Star is his sidekick, a 2-year-old golden retriever lab mix. Louie and Star are side by side every day. They are never apart. Star works on the ambulance with him and is constantly attending to Louie's needs. Star is the first dog in the country to actively work on an ambulance with her handler. Since Star works on the ambulance she is also cross trained to track and search for people in case they have a lost victim they respond to. She has been the medication for Louie since September of 2016 when they were paired.
