Recognizing the roles and contributions of United States service animals and their valiant human handlers for bravery in both war and peace, and acknowledging the importance of creating a process for honoring their valor and meritorious achievements.

House Resolution 935 formally recognizes the bravery and contributions of U.S. service animals and their human handlers during both military conflict and peacetime. The resolution supports the establishment of a formal annual process to nominate these animals for specific honors, such as the Medal of Bravery and the Distinguished Service Medal. For citizens, this measure aims to ensure that the specialized roles of animals in national security and public safety are officially honored and that their historical impact is preserved through a standardized recognition program.
