COMMUNITY AUCTION TO SUPPORT OUR K-9s

Did you know these K-9s require ongoing training, certification, protective equipment, specialized transport, and veterinary care in order to stay healthy, safe, and ready to serve?

These remarkable dogs work alongside their handlers in situations that require courage, discipline, and trust. They help protect officers, assist in dangerous operations, and serve our community in extraordinary ways.

Our community auction will helps support the needs behind that service.

We invite you to join us in supporting them and their handlers.
