The Rochester Police Department would like to thank Protecting K9 Heroes for their support of our K9 unit. We’ve recently received a fully stocked medical kit for K9 LEO. The kit contains essential supplies for LEO if he were to be injured in the line of duty that could save his life.

Protecting K9 Heroes has been providing K9’s in law enforcement and the military with ballistic vests and medical kits since 2015. With over 1500 vests and 4900 kits donated since the beginning of the organization. As if their generous donation wasn’t enough, they vow to replace any supplies used from the kit at no extra cost.

Thank you Protecting K9 Heroes for your donation and efforts to keep our furry partners safe on the job! Officer Easter and K9 LEO are more than grateful for your donation.
