We invite you, your family and friends to come join us at the Pinckney Library (125 Putnam St., Pinckney, MI, 48169) to learn about the Michigan War Dog Memorial on Tuesday, July 14, 2026 at 6:30pm - 7:30pm.
Description:
In 2010, Army veteran Phil Weitlauf discovered an abandoned 1946 war dog monument in Lyon Township, Michigan, leading him to transform the neglected site into the Michigan War Dog Memorial, a "K9 Arlington" offering free, full-honor burials. Inspired by this, Clint and Krisi Symons looked at the profound impact of the Michigan site and founded the US War Dog Memorial to expand this "Michigan Model" nationwide, ensuring that fallen K9 heroes receive dignified, no-cost recognition across the country. Join Clint Symons as he shares their dream of ensuring these heroes are honored in every corner of the nation.
