Joe Yurick discusses the benefits of being a JDog franchise owner and why it is so impactful for Veterans and Military family members.

The show, which premieres on October 10th, will be sponsored by the patriotic lifestyle retailer with the goal of creating awareness around the importance of veteran support and community outreach.

JDog founder Jerry Flanagan describes the show as “’American Pickers’ meets ‘Storage Wars,’ but with a higher purpose.”

Described as “American Pickers meets Pawn Stars but with a higher purpose,” this reality series follows enterprising U.S. military veterans and their families from J-Dog Junk Removal and Hauling, America’s largest veteran-owned franchise system, whose mission is to salvage and repurpose otherwise unused items and turn them into “treasures” for other families and veterans in need.

New series airs Oct. 10, featuring veterans and their JDog franchises around the nation.

Joe Yurick, a franchisee of JDog Junk Removal & Hauling, said he was drawn to the brand by the community of veterans that had built up around it.

In 2011, Jerry Flanagan started a small junk removal business in Pennsylvania. Today, JDog has expanded into carpet cleaning and floor care with over 250 franchises nationwide.
