American Humane Association is working to bring the first
National Fire Dog Monument to the nation's capital. The National Fire Dog Monument (NDFM) was created by
Jerry Means, owner of the 2011 American Humane Associations Hero Dog Awards™
finalist, Sadie. The bronze statue was sculpted by a Denver area firefighter
and serves to acknowledge the incredible, heroic work of Certified
Accelerant-Detection K-9s (Arson Dogs) everywhere.
Each year billions of dollars worth of property damage
and hundreds of lives are lost to arson. Arson Dogs help fight those crimes.
