But&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-%E2%80%9Cmrs-jdog%E2%80%9D-flanagan-7a1b201a/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=franchisewire-how-jdog-brands-helps-veterans-make-a-smooth-transition-to-civilian-life-2720593" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Tracy Flanagan</a> and her husband,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerryflanagan11?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=franchisewire-how-jdog-brands-helps-veterans-make-a-smooth-transition-to-civilian-life-2720593" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Jerry Flanagan</a>, are looking to continue to lower that rate to under 1% nationwide. The Flanagans have created a unique opportunity for Veterans to own small businesses and hire other Veterans in their communities through their company&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jdogbrands.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=franchisewire-how-jdog-brands-helps-veterans-make-a-smooth-transition-to-civilian-life-2720593" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">JDog Brands</a>. The company offers home care services through its two brands, JDog Junk Removal &amp; Hauling and JDog Carpet Cleaning &amp; Floor Care. The couple has created a brand based on the military values of respect, integrity and trust.“The military encourages a lifestyle of honor, courage and service, which can, unfortunately, be the opposite of many modern work environments,” said Tracy Flanagan. “That is why many Veterans find it extremely difficult when trying to transition into civilian positions post-service. We offer job and business opportunities to lower the Veteran unemployment rate.”The Flanagans have loved watching&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/jdogbrands">JDog Brands</a> grow from a single Jeep and trailer to a national franchise helping many Veterans. Tracy encourages people to support Veteran-owned businesses in their communities because of the hard work, dedication and experience Veterans bring to a business.Read the full FranchiseWire article&nbsp;<a href="https://www.franchisewire.com/how-jdog-brands-helps-veterans-make-a-smooth-transition-to-civilian-life/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=franchisewire-how-jdog-brands-helps-veterans-make-a-smooth-transition-to-civilian-life-2720593" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a>.&nbsp;
