Program areas at Project K9 Hero

To ensure each k-K9-9 Hero is rewarded with health and the way of life that they deserve for their faithful and loyal service. To educate the public on the costs and responsibilities of adopting a retired k-K9-9 Hero. To help cover or offset all medical, prescription food, and end of duty costs for retired k-K9-9 heroes. With dozens of retired k-K9-9 heroes needing support, the time has come for Project k-K9-9 Hero to move forward with building a rehabilitation and rehoming facility, along with our corporate headquarters. This facility will support and further our mission, allowing us to provide an enriching, safe, and healthy environment for retired heroes in need of an immediate home. We are currently in the initial stages of design and construction.
