Mission K9 Rescue Receives $50,000 Grant from Petco Love Foundation to Save Working Dogs

At Mission K9 Rescue, our mission is to bring retired working dogs home, where they can enjoy the love and comfort they deserve after years of dedicated service. Today, we are thrilled to share the news of a $50,000 grant awarded to us by the Petco Love Foundation in 2023. This generous grant has made a significant impact, allowing us to transport a group of contract working dogs from Afghanistan to the United States and provide them with the veterinary care they need.

The journey these dogs have taken is nothing short of remarkable. Each of these brave animals served alongside our troops, protecting lives and offering companionship in some of the most challenging environments. When their service came to an end, they faced uncertainty and were left behind. Thanks to the support from Petco Love Foundation, we were able to ensure that these dogs made it safely back to the United States, where they can now begin a new chapter of their lives.

Transporting dogs from a conflict zone is no small task. It involves careful planning, coordination, and a lot of resources. The Petco Love Foundation’s grant covered the costs of this complex operation, including the logistics of bringing the dogs home and the critical veterinary care they required upon arrival. This care is essential, ensuring that the dogs are healthy and ready to be placed in loving forever homes.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Petco Love Foundation for their support. This grant truly is life-saving. It has given these loyal dogs a chance to live out their lives in peace, surrounded by love and care. We are deeply grateful for this partnership and for the opportunity to continue our work in rescuing and rehabilitating retired working dogs.

As we move forward, we are committed to honoring the trust that Petco Love Foundation has placed in us. We will continue to provide the highest level of care for these dogs and work tirelessly to find them the loving homes they deserve. Thank you, Petco Love Foundation, for being a part of this mission and for helping us make a difference in the lives of these incredible dogs.
