Dogs Of Distinction Incorporated
Our Mission
Dogs Of Distinction Incorporated is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization committed to supporting working dogs and their handlers, especially those with limited resources. Our mission is to ensure these dedicated K9 teams have access to the equipment, financial support, and resources they need to continue their life-saving work in communities across the country.
At Dogs Of Distinction, we believe that every working dog deserves the best care, protection, and support, whether they are involved in search and rescue, therapy, or public safety. We provide not only the essential tools and gear needed for their duties but also financial assistance to cover unexpected medical or operational expenses.
Our dedication extends beyond just the K9 teams we support; we aim to foster a greater understanding and appreciation for the vital roles these dogs play. Through outreach and collaboration, we work to ensure that every K9 team, regardless of their financial situation, can serve with safety and confidence. Our goal is to create lasting impact by empowering these teams and helping them continue their invaluable contributions to society.
How We Help
Supporting K9 Teams in Need
Our mission begins the moment we are contacted by a handler or organization in need of assistance. Whether it’s for critical equipment, unexpected medical expenses, or operational costs, Dogs Of Distinction Incorporated acts quickly to provide the necessary resources. Our team works tirelessly to ensure that every K9 and handler team we support is equipped to safely and effectively carry out their duties.
Providing Essential Equipment
A large part of our work is making sure that K9 teams have the gear they need to stay safe and perform at their best. From protective vests and first-aid kits to specialized tools for search and rescue or detection work, we provide high-quality, essential equipment tailored to the specific needs of each team. Our goal is to give these working dogs and their handlers the best chance of success in their service.
Emergency Financial Assistance
When emergencies arise, many K9 handlers, especially those working independently or with limited resources, struggle to cover unexpected costs. We step in to offer financial assistance, ensuring that these teams can continue their vital work without the burden of unmanageable expenses. Whether it’s for medical bills, travel costs for deployments, or urgent repairs to equipment, we’re here to help.
Long-Term Support and Advocacy
While our immediate focus is on providing equipment and funds, Dogs Of Distinction also advocates for greater awareness of the critical role K9 teams play in our communities. We work with local organizations and individuals to foster long-term support for these teams, ensuring they can continue their essential services for years to come.
Rapid Response for K9 Teams
At Dogs Of Distinction Incorporated, we take swift action when a K9 team is in need. Whether it’s a handler with an urgent request for financial assistance or a team facing equipment shortages, we mobilize quickly to ensure they can continue their mission without disruption. Our priority is to support those K9 teams working in critical fields like search and rescue, law enforcement, and therapy, who may not have access to traditional fundraising or resources.
Comprehensive Equipment Solutions
Ensuring that K9 teams are equipped with the right tools is a core part of our work. We provide specialized gear, including protective vests, detection devices, and rescue equipment, tailored to the needs of each dog and handler. Our support extends to both new teams just starting out and seasoned teams that need to update or replace aging equipment. We work closely with handlers to identify their most urgent needs and ensure their dogs are ready to serve safely and effectively.

About Us.
Dogs Of Distinction Incorporated began in Cumming, Georgia, in 2015 with the goal of providing critical support to working K9 teams. What started as a small initiative to help local K9 handlers with limited resources has since grown into a national nonprofit organization, dedicated to ensuring these hardworking dogs and their handlers receive the equipment and financial aid they need to serve their communities effectively.
Our work is made possible by a dedicated team of volunteers who devote their time and energy to supporting K9 teams across the country. From fundraising efforts to helping organize equipment distribution, these incredible individuals come from all walks of life—many are professionals, parents, and active members of their communities. Their passion and commitment are the backbone of Dogs Of Distinction and have allowed us to continuously expand our impact.
At Dogs Of Distinction, we partner closely with K9 trainers, veterinarians, and equipment suppliers to ensure every dog and handler receives the best care and tools available. We pride ourselves on being a vital resource for handlers who need urgent assistance, and our community involvement is key to our ongoing success. Our organization is more than just support; it’s a network of people working together to keep these K9 teams safe, prepared, and ready to serve.
