National Military Working Dogs Memorial

Our Chosen Charity

The National Military Working Dogs Memorial is a charity really close to our hearts. We want to honour working dogs for all they do for this country as we do service men. The National Military Working Dogs Memorial charity, otherwise known as NMWDM (UK), was established in 2017 with the sole purpose to establish a memorial to commemorate the Military Working Dogs who bravely served their country in both World Wars and subsequent conflicts as in Bosnia Afghanistan and Iraq.

John Ward, Owner of Pet Funeral Services Ltd, has kindly donated the land for the memorial at the award winning Pet Cemetery grounds in Holywell, Flintshire, North Wales. The memorial will then be ideally situated – central  and accessible, to  the whole of the UK and Ireland.

John Ward and his daughter, Emma Ward are trustees of the charity and work to raise both awareness and funds to enable the memorial to be constructed. Like all the other trustees, their time and hard work is given free of charge.

We’d love your support and donations

Our aim is to build a new national memorial to honour military dogs that saved lives will be constructed in Flintshire, North Wales. The National Military Working Dog Memorial will cost around £150,000 to build and will feature four bronze statues who will guard over the plaques commemorating the work of the Armed Forces service animals who have served with distinction.

We need your help and donations to make this memorial a reality!
