Dog Day Radio ARC Promotes Advocacy for Healthy Puppies

Members of the Dog Day Radio Amateur Radio Club are putting the callsign K0DOG on the air to advocate for the responsible care, breeding and rescue of puppies everywhere. Please show your support - and share your stories - by contacting the operators via CW or SSB from 0000 March 22nd through to 2359 March 23rd.

This special-event activation is in recognition of National Puppy Day, a day of recognition credited to US animal welfare advocate Colleen Paige.

All confirmed QSOs will be eligible for a downloadable certificate from the link on the QRZ.com page - or an eQSL.

Please help spread awareness of puppies who need the best start so they can share a lifetime of joy with those who love them!

The club recently completed a successful activation of K9 Veterans Day earlier this month and will be active again in August as part of a global team for International Dog Day.
