Basically, karma gave me something to think about, outside of myself, outside of using.

Imagine being arrested in your own uniform, paraded around the precinct in handcuffs. That's the raw reality Travis Sackett faced when his addiction led him to commit credit card fraud while on duty. But amidst the chaos, a beacon of hope emerged in the form of a dog named Karma. Rescued at the height of his addiction, Karma walked with Travis through his darkest days, even when he was in solitary confinement and battling a traumatic brain injury.

In this episode of 'Hard Knox Talks: Sober Stories. Real Talk.', Travis shares how his bond with Karma became a lifeline, guiding him toward recovery. He opens up about finding Karma starving and chained to a tree, and how she stayed by his side when no one else would. Travis's story is a testament to the transformative power of companionship and the resilience needed to overcome addiction.

Tune in to hear this heartwarming and inspiring tale of recovery, resilience, and the unbreakable bond between a man and his dog.
