This patch is for Operation PAWS.
 
To earn the patch, you must complete a ruck / hike of at least 1 mile carrying a minimum of 10 lbs. Ideally take your pup (or cat!) with you on the adventure.
 
Rules:
1. Your ruck weight MUST be made up of new, unopened animal food or other items requested by the shelter.
2. You must donate these items, after the event or during the event, to a local animal shelter.
 
For Bonus Points, take out a shelter dog for your Operation PAWS adventure and include them on the photo and lets get them adopted.
 
Good luck!
