Key Points
This message officially recognizes March 13 as National K-9 Veterans Day. It honors the dogs that have served in the U.S. military and law enforcement from the Revolutionary War to modern times.
The date marks the anniversary of the U.S. Army K-9 Corps, which started in 1942 during World War II. Today, about 1,600 working dogs are serving in combat zones, at the borders, and in local police departments.
The message highlights how these dogs are trained for dangerous jobs like finding explosives, detecting drugs, and conducting search-and-rescue missions to save lives.
