HOW PROJECT K-9 HERO SERVES RETIRED K-9's
Retired Military Working Dogs and Police K-9 Heroes accepted into Project K-9 Hero will have all medical costs covered for them. Project K-9 Hero will also cover the K-9’s food costs and have food shipped directly to the owner’s residence. Project K-9 Hero additionally provides $500.00 to the owner when the K-9 is deceased for cremation or burial service. This is all, of course, dependent on funding raised through donations.
TOYS TO SUPPORT CAUSES & INITIATIVES THAT ARE NEAR & DEAR TO HUGGLEHOUNDS®
For the entire year of 2024, we are supporting Project K-9 Hero and their service to our nation's retired Police K-9 and Military Working Dog Heros with our K-9 Mattis Knottie®! K9 Mattis served as a Dual-Purpose Police K-9 for six years at Alpharetta Department of Public Safety before retiring in 2021. He specialized in Patrol Apprehension, Tracking, and Narcotics Detection and was awarded the Officer of the Year and Director's Award making him the most decorated police dog in the history of the department. He also received a Purple Heart for his actions after being injured in a 30ft fall during a criminal apprehension. A true Hero! This injury still affects him today and Project K-9 Hero is honored to be paying his medical bills for the rest of his life.
