My analogy, using your scenario would be; the veteran contacts a restaurant to arrange a quiet dinner for two for an anniversary. In the middle of the quiet dinner, a large, rowdy crowd comes in, loud music and pyrotechnics go off. The poor vet took pains to plan a peaceful evening, which was ruined. Not his fault.
Sorry, but you cannot control what goes on around you in life...

If you want to try... Stay home...

As to " dogs love to serve". I just think they enjoy most interactions with their owners. Dogs are sensitive, empathetic and if you are in pain physically or mentally, they sense that and they feel bad too, only, they have no clue why you are troubled or what to do for you. So, you have transferred your stress and unhappiness onto them.
Or, they transfer their calm and happiness on to their owner...
