Imagine you’ve chosen to serve our country. The call comes in. You’re being sent off to a foreign land to fight for our freedoms. Who is going to watch Rex and Bandit while you’re gone? Do you have a willing friend to take care of them while you serve? Or will they be dropped off at the local shelter in the hopes that they can find a new home while you’re gone?<\/p>\n

Now envision you have served your country (or city). You were a K-9 cop or military working dog your whole life. Now that you’re retired, where do you go? Is there a family out there willing to adopt you? Are you really suited for civilian life? What alternative do you have if you’re not?<\/p>\n

In steps Heroes Refuge<\/a>, an upcoming organization designed to help both enlisted servicemen and women as well as retired working canines. Heroes Refuge’s will be “A place where your pet can have a home while you protect ours.” It will also be a place where retired K-9s or military working dogs (MWDs) can live out the rest of their lives in comfort.<\/p>\n

Heroes Refuge is still in its infancy and no location has been chosen yet. It is the brainchild of a close friend of mine and I have helped as best I could along the way. At the very least, I designed the logo. \ud83d\ude09 I feel this project has so much potential and thought today would be a great day to help spread the word about it.<\/p>\n

You can learn more about Heroes Refuge on their website<\/a> and on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n
