The Issue: Law-Enforcement Dogs Sent into Harm’s Way

Every day, service dogs working alongside their police, fire, and military partners are sent into extremely dangerous situations—often ahead of their human counterparts—in which they might be shot, stabbed, or otherwise injured. Currently, 86 vest requests from states across the country, including Georgia, await fulfillment, according to Project Paws Alive, Inc. When these requests are filled, brave canines can be better protected while putting their lives on the line to protect their partners and communities.

The Campaign: Providing Protective Vests for Police Dogs

All donations to this Grassroots campaign will be used by Project Paws Alive, Inc. to provide stab- and bulletproof protective vests for law-enforcement service dogs. For every $800 raised, Project Pets Alive, Inc. can purchase one canine vest.
