K9 Retired Medical care
Supporting K9 units nationwide since 1998.
how we help
The Retired K9 Medical Care offers grants that assist Law Enforcement Agencies and Handlers with costs related to emergency medical expenses for retired K9s.
Most K9s after active service go home with their handlers to become household pets. The ongoing medical care for the retired K9s can be very expensive. The National Police Dog Foundation commends these handlers for their dedication to the K9s and is proud to assists in the costs of Medical Care for the retired K9s.
It's important to provide medical care not only for active K9 officers but also continued care for the dogs after they retire. Unfortunately, the K9s do not receive a pension.
The Foundation’s network of veterinarians, that includes some of the country’s most valued specialists in many varying areas of health care, give discounts to active and retired K9s.
Help us to assist law enforcement agencies to protect and serve.
