Mission K9
Military dogs in America’s armed forces devotedly work alongside their human handlers, in service to the United States. However, when their duties end, they frequently end up in kennels, often suffering from physical injuries and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Mission K9 is dedicated to offering America’s K9 military heroes the peaceful retirement they deserve, restoring their emotional and physical health, and finding them forever homes — often with their former handlers.
In this interview Bob talks about the work the charity do, the dogs they save, the challenges they face, and the harsh reality of life for some working dogs. Find out more at the Mission K9 Rescue website. The other charity Bob mentions is Hero Paws .
