Great Organization Worth Supporting! Warrior Dog Foundation @WarriorDogs
Warrior Dog Foundation is dedicated to serving the special operations community, families, and Special OperationForces (SOF) working K-9 military dogs.
Warrior Dog Foundation helps to transition dogs from an operational environment into our state-of-the-art kennel facility. We strive to educate the public on the importance of K-9s in the combat environment, and showcase the level of sacrifice these dogs give in support of our troops. We care for each individual SOF K-9 with dignity and grace, including both mental and physical rehabilitation for the rest of their lives.
