To honor police K-9s that died in the line of duty, national nonprofit organization K9s United will host its seventh annual Memorial Run on Tuesday, Sept. 1 — National Police K9 Day. K9s United uses the funds from the event to support active-duty police K-9s, helping secure advanced training, safety equipment, heat alarms, kennels and other equipment. For the K9s United president, the purpose of the Memorial Run is to make sure that police dogs are not viewed as merely statistics. “We don’t want those dogs’ sacrifice to just be viewed as a statistic,” he said.
