Pet Pride Day hosted by San Francisco Animal Control holds this huge event with 50 charities and thousands of dogs who bring their owners to shake paws at our K-9 Armor booth and raise $86 in 2006 and $164 in 2007 in beautiful, Golden Gate Park. Here's a picture with one of the brave officers and star of Animal COPS San Francisco. We received an award since 2006 for protecting the police dogs of California. Congratulations to Lt. LeEllis Brown for his promotion to Lieutenant!
Sunday, October 26, 2008 We raised $75 and received a beautiful award! Thanks to SFPD Chief of Police Heather Fong for stopping by to shake paws and congratulate us for our dedication to providing protective gear for police dogs. Thanks to Chief Fong, SFPD purchased 20 bulletproof vests for their K-9 Unit, if only every police department would follow their example! For now, most agencies do not budget for bulletproof vests for their K-9's so it is up to us to raise the money and save these brave, beautiful dogs. Help us protect them by donating on our Paypal button or send us a check to our address at the top of this page. Thanks for your donations! |

Rasp competed at the Petaluma PD K9 Trials August 7, 2010 we received a generous donation of $750 from Chris and Karen Tallerico of Hercules, for a whole vest to Richmond PD in memory of fallen K9 Officer Brad Moody, we are proud and honored to apply their donation of a bulletproof vest for Richmond PD K9 Rasp. Rasp and his handler Officer Mandell, were recently engaged in battle with a bank robber shooting at Rasp and the suspect broke off the dog's tail as Rasp held on and took down the bad guy! At the Petaluma Trials we saw Rasp perform with great determination even without his tail. What an incredible story, visit our www.facebook.com/k9armor photo album with Rasp giving thanks for his new vest! |
