Puppy raisers and volunteers for Hero Dogs, Inc. are excited to present the 4th Annual Hero Dogs 5K9, our 3rd year with an IN-PERSON option hosted at Congressional Cemetery in Washington DC.

This year we are also offering registration for your furry 4-legged friends - Add-on Registration for Pups is $10 and includes a Hero Dogs Bandana! Please note: Only Hero Dogs will be permitted at the in-person event (service dogs, therapy dogs, skilled home companions and service dogs in training). Other dogs may register to receive the bandana giveaway but will not be allowed at Congressional on Race Day. All participants that complete the in-person race will receive a medal at the finish line!
