Hero Paws - Soldiering On Awards Finalist 2024, Animal Partnership Award

In partnership with Pets at Home - www.petsathome...
Hero Paws was formed to provide a bridge of support from military service to a balanced and fulfilled retirement for ex-Service dogs. This has now been expanded to help dogs from various uniformed services and affiliated security or conservation organisations whose retired animals need support.
Started originally by a small group of military dog handlers who had served shoulder to shoulder with their canine comrades, the Hero Paws team discovered that many of these loyal animals faced euthanasia on returning from active duty due to a lack of resources, experience, and support for their re-adjustment and decompression.
The unique and unbreakable bond between these animals and their handlers is as strong as any human relationship. They trained together, stood together in war zones, and saved many lives together, sometimes at the cost of their own. Their commitment as humans to their canine brothers and sisters was so strong that they eventually left their careers to form an organisation that could stand up for them and support them beyond their service.
Hero Paws currently supports 70 dogs and families from all backgrounds, and many more have now been rehabilitated, rehomed, and are living long, happy retirements, together with medical and financial support.
