SUMMARY:National K9 Veterans Day
DESCRIPTION:March 13th recognizes National K9 Veterans Day and the dedicated K9 units who’ve served since World War II. \nSTN Inspirational Quotes To Keep You Inspired in 2023\n#NationalK9VeteransDay\nA lot of things changed after the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941. We rationed oil\, leather\, and rubber. The military draft men into service. Women rolled up their sleeves and built war supplies. \nAnd dogs were called to duty. During the first world war\, the United States took notice of the European use of canines as sentries\, message carriers\, and several other functions. \nA private citizen\, Mrs. Alene Erlanger initiated a program called Dogs for Defense. Along with the American Kennel Club and a handful of breeders\, the group aimed to train the dogs for military use. \nBy November of 1942\, the military prepared the first Dogs for Defense for duty in North Africa. While they were gun shy at first\, they proved to be well trained. \nAs the war progressed\, Dogs for Defense was unable to keep up with the demand\, and the Remount Branch\, Service Installations Divisions took over the training of the dogs. \nOver the years\, the military\, police\, and rescue have developed a variety of training methods for K9 units. Their training is tailored to meet the demands of the job\, and each animal and handler carries out his or her duties to the fullest. \n\n\n \nHOW TO OBSERVE NATIONAL K9 VETERANS DAY\n\nRecognize a K9 veteran.\nLearn more about their service\, history\, and training.\nAttend a ceremony honoring the working dogs in military units and working dogs across the country.\nUse #NationalK9VeteransDay to post on social media.\n\nSource Link
