K-9 Retired Medical care
Supporting K-9 units nationwide since 1998.
how we help
The Retired K-9 Medical Care offers grants that assist Law Enforcement Agencies and Handlers with costs related to emergency medical expenses for retired K-9s.
​
Most K-9s after active service go home with their handlers to become household pets. The ongoing medical care for the retired K-9s can be very expensive. The National Police Dog Foundation commends these handlers for their dedication to the K-9s and is proud to assists in the costs of Medical Care for the retired K-9s.
​
It's important to provide medical care not only for active K-9 officers but also continued care for the dogs after they retire. Unfortunately, the K-9s 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 K-9s.
