K9 Veterans Day Event

Leader Heights Animal Hospital to host 3rd annual K9 Veterans Day Event

York, Pa 3/21/20, 1-4 pm rain or shine (ceremony to begin promptly at 1:30) – Leader Heights Animal Hospital will be hosting our third annual K9 Veterans Day event to recognize, honor, and memorialize service animals from all organizations in the York and surrounding areas. This is an opportunity to pay tribute to these dogs and their handlers who selflessly serve. The event will take place at our hospital, 199 Leader Heights Road, and is open to the public (we ask that you leave your pets at home so as not to distract the service animals). The event will include:

• Hero awards for local service animals, including a 1971 Sgt and his fallen K9

• Memorializing fallen service animals in our K9 Memorial garden

• K9 Demonstrations

• Free food

• Free fingerprinting for children provided by the York County Sheriffs Office K9 Unit

• Children’s activities, crafts, face painting, and more

• Book signing by children’s author MJ McKlusky

• Dog pampering with free laser therapy and nail trims for all service animals

• Raising funds for the West York K9 Department and York County Sheriffs Office K9 Department

• Retired K9 heroes up for adoption

• Raffle items

• And More…
