Why Their Work Matters
With rising costs and shrinking budgets, many law enforcement agencies are forced to reduce or eliminate their K9 programs altogether. Yet K9 units are often the first on the scene — detecting threats, pursuing suspects, and protecting their human partners. Going To The Dogs steps in to make sure these four-legged officers have what they need to serve and survive.
Their support includes:
-
Purchasing bullet/stab-resistant vests
(Over 70 provided to date — each costing $700–$1,000)
-
Funding trained K9 acquisitions
($10,000–$15,000 per dog)
-
Supplying specialized gear and patrol car equipment
-
Helping retired K9s with medical and end-of-life care
From first leash to final salute, Going To The Dogs ensures these heroes are never forgotten.
Partnership with LOF Defence
LOF is proud to collaborate with Going To The Dogs through the K9 Defender Program, providing reliable, field-proven gear like the K9 StreetFighter vest to ensure maximum protection without compromising agility or comfort.
This partnership empowers departments across Missouri and Kansas to equip their K9s with gear trusted by elite military and law enforcement units worldwide — gear that is often out of reach without donor support.
