Customs Client Spotlight: Hike For K9 Heroes

Hike For K9 Heroes is a fundraiser for Warrior Dog Foundation taking place on September 8th. Abby, a 7 year old East German Czech shepherd, will be hiking across the White Mountains of New Hampshire. She and her family will hike various mountains and camp on their way to Mount Washington.

Warrior Dog Foundation is dedicated to serving the Special Operations community, families, and Special Operation Forces (SOF) working K-9 military dogs. The K-9s employed with these forces are the top of the line in the working-dog world. They are expected to work in the most difficult of environments and face conditions that most human beings can’t survive. This is the atmosphere in which these elite warriors operate. The K-9 units are vital in ensuring the success of every mission and operate in all conditions.

Mount Washington is notorious for it’s inclement weather, due to three weather fronts meeting. It is often hiked by mountaineers training for Mount Everest and it’s Abby’s main objective! During Abby’s hike, the Hike For K9 Heroes website will be updated daily with pictures and the progress they’re making, and will also feature Abby’s activity level. Check it out here!
