CHPMP is comprised of dedicated volunteers who work countless hours in order to maintain The Pet Memorial Park. Our cemetery is a beautiful, well maintained resting place for family pets at a reasonable cost. CHPMP is proud to have a War Dog Monument in the Cedar Hill Pet Memorial Park as a tribute to the working animals that serve our community and country. We offer an advocacy program called the "Shadow Fund" for K9 handlers in the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex to help care for their retired partners. The Shadow Funds are used for the safety and healthcare of retired Police, Fire, Military, US Customs, Search & Rescue K9s. We provide assistance so that no K9 suffers or is euthanized because of a shortage of funds for medical care. In the event of a K9's passing, Cedar Hill Pet Memorial Project, Inc. will provide a free headstone and burial in the Heroes Section of the Pet Memorial Park.
