Make a donation.
Funded solely by private donations and fundraisers, our K-9s follow rigorous training steps in order to develop the skills necessary to protect themselves, their handlers and our community.
All of the funds raised on behalf of the K-9 Unit go directly toward the development and support of our K-9 teams. Here is how your donations help:
-
Our K-9s attend training schools to ensure they are able to work safely and effectively in a variety of scenarios and circumstances. This allows them to develop skills that consistently prove invaluable to our officersβ efforts, but it does require a significant financial investment. The purchase of a dog and initial Patrol and Detection Class is between $18,000-$20,000. Additional classes/courses/confrences after the K9 Team graduates from Patrol and Detection class can range in cost from $500-$4,000.
-
Just like human officers, our K-9s rely on protective gear to keep them safe. The money we raise allows us to purchase a variety of important equipment for our K-9s, including ballistic vests, paw protection, cooling equipment and lifting harnesses.
-
We are committed to providing high-quality care for our K-9s throughout their careers and retirement. This means ensuring that they have the food, equipment, veterinary care and ongoing training they need to lead happy, healthy lives. For each K-9, this requires an investment of approximately $4,000 per year.
