With the help of highly trained VMF service dogs, veterans gain greater independence in their home and community.
After the walk:
- Stop by Vienna Pet Spaw at 101 Church St NW in Vienna. Canines wearing their Dog Walk bandana get a free nail clipping.
- Eat at Foster's Grille at 138 Maple Ave W in Vienna on June 20th. Drop your receipt in the container and 20% goes to VMF.
Online registration is now closed. On-site registration accepts cash and checks for dog washes & registrations - remember, humans walk free!
