Retired Military
Working Dog
Assistance Organization
The Retired Military Working Dog Assistance Organization (RMWDAO), was founded October of 2011 in Universal City, Texas. RMWDAO was formed after a push to get the military to reclassify Military Working Dogs from “excess equipment” to “canine service members” and to help get Military Working Dogs Medical Benefits after retirement. RMWDAO is a nonprofit organization that takes donations to help cover those medical costs after a MWD retires, so that tax dollars aren’t used.
