Working Dogs Deserve Our Support
Working K-9s sacrifice everything, dedicating their lives to provide humans with protection, happiness, and freedom. They don't choose this path; they do it because exceptional loyalty is in their nature. Returning that loyalty should come without question.
After their years of service, you might assume these dogs are provided with the healthcare assistance they deserve. A reasonable expectation - but that is unfortunately not the case. This is where the K-9 Courage Program comes in.
The K-9 Courage Program is a charitable healthcare donation program that provides financial and in-kind product donations that support retired police and military K-9s. Program contributions help assure caregivers that these courageous and loyal dogs continue to live happy and healthy lives.
Each caregiver receives a $300 K-9 Courage Visa® Prepaid card yearly to use on anything at their veterinary clinic, including medical expenses, vaccines, medication... even dog food or treats.
K-9 Courage also supports American Humane’s Pups4Patriots™ program, which trains shelter dogs to become new service dogs, providing assistance to veterans suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress and Traumatic Brain Injury.
Through the K-9 Courage Program, we hope to show these four-legged heroes that humans can be exceptionally loyal, too.
