The Race for the Rescues helps to bring awareness to the importance of rescuing and adopting shelter dogs in our local community. Shelter pets not only make great family member but also make outstanding therapy and service dogs! It is with this notion that we are very pleased to announce this year's proceeds will be benefiting the Cornell University Policy K-9 Unit. The teams are in need of training aids, including explosives materials!
The K-9 program dogs have either come from rescues or from the local community. They undergo vigorous training and must receive yearly certifications. For more information visit the Cornell University Police K-9 Unit website: http://www.cupolice.cornell.edu/dept_directory/k9_unit.cfm
