The National Police Dog Foundation is a volunteer organization that promotes education and awareness, and raises funds for the purchase, training and ongoing veterinary care of active and retired police K-9s. In 1998, the Ventura Police Dog Foundation began as a local group helping to fund the K-9 program for the City of Ventura, CA, and in 2004, the National Police Dog Foundation expanded its support to law enforcement K-9 units throughout the United States. Most law enforcement agencies simply cannot meet their ever-increasing costs related to their K-9 units. The Foundation has become a unique resource for these agencies, to get the assistance they need. The Foundation’s network of veterinarians includes some of the country’s most valued specialists in many varying areas of healthcare. The Foundation’s efforts are all done to support America’s selfless and courageous K-9 heroes.
