Animals in War Memorial, Ottawa

The Animals in War Memorial (officially Animals in War and Les animaux en temps de guerre) is a memorial sculpture located at Confederation Park in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

It commemorates animals used by the Canadian military (Canadian Army) in conflicts since the Second Boer War (this excludes the use of animals by British Army and French Army before Canada existed as a country).

The memorial consists of three plaques mounted on a stone and sculpture of a dog with foot prints locate next to the South African War Memorial, Ottawa and near the National Aboriginal Veterans Monument.

The plaques and sculpture are created by Ottawa-based artist David Clendining with Laureen Harper as honorary patron of the project.

Swick and supporters presented the idea for a memorial to the National Capital Commission Committee in 2010.
