The Newcastle Police Department was the recipient of ballistic vests for its four-legged officer, K9 Ari. The donation came from Brady’s K9 Fund.
The non-profit said it is passionate about supporting the K9 officers, who work tirelessly to keep the community safe. According to information from the non profit, Brady’s K9 is dedicated to providing essential equipment and resources to K9s, ensuring they are well-equipped and protected for their entire shift.
Brady’s K9 Fund was founded by an eight-yearold boy who felt K9 officers deserve body armor, just like their human partners. Since 2018 Brady’s Fund has raised more than $1.25 million and vested more than 950 K9s across all 50 states, and their mission is ongoing.
Support and donations go directly to providing essential life saving equipment for K9s, and ensure the K9s return home safe, the organization states.
