Military
Working Dog Foundation, Inc.
About
Us
The Mission of the Military
Working Dog Foundation is to assist the Department of Defense Military
Working Dog Center in finding suitable homes for military working dogs
that become available for adoption because they are no longer capable of
performing their military duties.
Because on occasion, dogs
are available for distribution to police departments and other law enforcement
agencies, the Foundation's mission is also to help this process involving
law enforcement K-9 units. In most cases, the dogs made available to law
enforcement would make excellent working dogs, but due to time restraints,
the military is unable to continue training them.
The dogs available for private
adoption are not your ordinary house pets. They are anything but ordinary.
They have served in protecting our country or have been to military K-9
'boot camp" and are very special animals. Our goal is to aid the MWD Center
in finding appropriate homes for the working dogs available for private
adoption to the public, former handlers and other persons capable of properly
caring for these dogs as well as law enforcement agencies having a special
requirement for a trained K-9.
When funds permit we will:
-
Provide support and protective
gear to those dogs that are placed in law enforcement agencies.
-
Provide "comfort supplies" (treats,
special gear, hygiene kits, etc.) to military working dogs and their handlers
that are deployed in foreign countries.
-
Provide the necessary support
services and items to those dogs that go to private homes
Please help us help find acceptable
homes and placement for these great dogs, so they can either retire in
the company of a good home or continue working in police K-9 units and
other law enforcement agencies.
You can help by spreading
the word to people who love dogs and to your local police department. You
can also aid by sending a tax-deductible donation to assist in our continued
efforts.
The Military Working Dog
Foundation is an IRS 501(c)3 for public benefit Non-Profit organization.
Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Military Working Dog Foundation,
Inc.
