The Hartsdale Pet Cemetery, one of the oldest of its kind in this country, will host a memorial service for military dogs and those who have been trained to assist fire, police and the like at 1 p.m. on Sunday at the cemetery, 75 Central Park Avenue in Hartsdale.
The cemetery includes a bronze and granite War Dog Memorial, first erected in 1923, that stands 10-feet high. Started in 1896 by a Manhattan veterinarian, there are now nearly 70,000 animals interred at the cemetery.
