What We Do

Our Commitment to the K9s

Equip

Provide vital equipment to ensure K9s and handlers have access to the tools they need to stay safe on the streets.

Train

Providing free, best-in-class training and crucial first-aid seminars throughout the U.S.

Advocate

Give a voice to these brave heroes through legislation and memorials.

Why K9s Need Your Help

SPECIAL EQUIPMENT NEEDS

K9s respond to dangerous situations and rely on specialized, often expensive tactical gear to stay safe.

EXTENSIVE TRAINING NEEDS

K9s units are highly-trained and benefit from regular training to safely and effectively protect us

GIVING THEM A VOICE

They dutifully serve, but cannot advocate for themselves.

ALLEVIATING BUDGET CONSTRAINTS

K9 units are one of the most resource-intensive units operated by law enforcement agencies, and we help fill the budget gaps.

HONORING THEIR SACRIFICE

K9s save lives. These brave heroes deserve to be honored and remembered.

CONNECTING COMMUNITIES

K9s help foster positive relations between law enforcement and the public.

Recent K9 Tributes

K9 Axel

When we learn of a K9s “end of watch,” one of the first things we do is reach out to the K9 Unit associated with the K9 and offer our condolences. Through a partnered artist, we will have a sketch rendering of the K9 commissioned, offer a portrait of the K9 to the handler or Unit, and then place the K9 on our Tribute Wall to be honored and never forgotten.
