“A North Wildwood police officer issued Jared and his wife a summons because of the dog. Goering said, ‘I expected to get more respect from him because of the jobs that we both have to do.’ ‘He mockingly asked if all veterans get service dogs,’ said Jared’s wife, Sally Goering, ‘his dog is medically necessary and he is a service dog.’ In 2009, Jared was serving in Afghanistan when his vehicle was blown up by IEDs, twice, within 36 hours. Now, Jared uses his 3-year-old service dog, Gator, short for Navigator, to help him walk, and to get up and down stairs.”
