Protecting Police K9s

The mission of The Police K9 Foundation is to supply police K9s with a bullet/stab-resistant vest. Each Point Blank Level II vest costs in excess of $1,200. As many of you are probably not aware, Police K9 dogs are not always issued a bullet-resistant vest as their human partners are. More often than not, many police departments and law enforcement agencies do not have the funds required to purchase the dog a vest. Police dogs, like their human partners, deserve protection as they work to keep all of us safe and secure. We rely on donations from the community to provide these K9s with bullet-resistant vests. Make a donation today.

Interested in getting a bullet-resistant vest for your K9? Then enter three important measurements on our sizing sheet and mail/fax it back to us.

What Police K9s Do for Us

Police dogs are used in a variety of law enforcement roles, including:

  • serving as patrol partners
  • tracking and apprehending suspects
  • detecting drugs, explosives, accelerants, and other contraband
  • locating missing persons
  • assisting in search-and-rescue missions
  • supporting the delivery of warrants and high-risk arrests
  • maintaining order through deterrence
  • and much more!

“We all know in this job that we’re subject to our K9s getting injured. But when it can be prevented just by having a life-saving vest, it makes it that much worse knowing that had you had it, the injuries would probably have never happened.”
