Every day, thousands of working dogs put themselves on the line as they track suspects, navigate rough terrain & operate in high-risk situations to protect our communities. They deserve a fighting chance to make it home after every shift. Our #PartnerInProtection sponsorship is your opportunity to step up for the dogs. Join forces with another donor to sponsor a ballistic vest for a K9 hero on the waitlist. 🤝 Each partner covers half the cost of a K9 Storm vest. Both names or logos are proudly embroidered on the vest. When you invest in these dogs, you invest in the safety of your communities.

For decades, working dogs have been critical, non-lethal partners, often making life-changing differences in the most crucial moments. As brave & powerful as they are, these K9 heroes still need our support to stay protected, trained & cared for. It’s up to us to ensure they have a real chance to survive life-threatening situations & enjoy a healthy, well-deserved retirement. Our mission to protect America’s working K9s wouldn’t be possible without YOUR support. Thank you for standing by them & enabling Spike’s K9 Fund to say yes to the dogs every time. ❤️🐾 We’re excited to continue helping more dogs with you, Spike’s Pack! 🐺 spikesk9fund.org 📸 Erik Larson (IG: osaki022) #SpikesK9 #K9Support #SpikesPack #ProtectWorkingDogs

What a year for our K9 teams. #IronDog2025 was an unforgettable success! 🦾🐺 K9 teams from across the country came to Dickerson, MD, to conquer three miles of mud pits, hill climbs, water crossings & more – all to sharpen their grit, strengthen their bond & level up their skills as K9-handler teams, while raising critical funds to support working dogs nationwide.

A true hero! 🐾 K9 Topper of #SouthamptonVillage PD found a missing 10-year-old boy who disappeared into the woods on a cold January night. K9 Topper & his handler, Officer Moore, located the boy, who had run away & vanished from his parents’ sight. With snow falling & strong winds intensifying the chill that night, the boy, dressed only in a light jacket & sneakers, was at serious risk from the cold. Thanks to this dedicated K9 team, they found him just in time, saving his life. K9 Topper & his handler are proud alumni of #SpikesSchool, having participated in our first #TrackingCourse in 2021. They’ve applied everything they learned & it’s made a significant impact on their success in the field, as shown in this recent news. We’re also thrilled to see Topper proudly wearing his K9 Storm #BallisticVest, made possible by the generous support of our donors through the K9 Krijger Ballistic Vest Campaign. In critical moments, the unmatched skills of working dogs can be life-saving, especially when human abilities fall short. With proper training & protection, these dogs can perform with maximum safety & efficiency – even in the most dangerous, unpredictable situations. The investment from our donors in both the safety & training of this K9 hero is making a huge difference in the community. Thank you for standing with the dogs, Spike’s Pack! Keep up the good work, K9 Topper! 💯 #SpikesK9 #SpikesK9Fund #K9Topper #SupportK9Heroes #ProtectWorkingDogs
