Happy K9 Veterans Day! Short and sweet today! We touch briefly on the history of military working dogs.

Did you know that during WW1 it is estimated that over 1 million dogs were killed in battle? Unbelievable! We talk about how the holiday came to be and what you can do to help celebrate!

Another great thing you could do is adopt retired working dogs. A lot of them are adopted by their handlers but there is still a need to give these hero's a loving home to grow old in.
