Police K9 Grants give a chance to law enforcement agencies to empower themselves with well-trained police dogs. Those grants can be great solutions for law enforcement agencies in need of fund sources for the purchase of police dogs. Well-trained dogs are so expensive, and, not many people know about this. Some of them can cost the law enforcement agency thousands of dollars. Specific practices and preparations that could take time and energy are the only reasons why these dogs are so expensive.
Police K9 equipment grants offered by K9s4COPs are the perfect example of financial solutions awarded to the eligible law enforcement agency that wants to add a K9 unit to its arsenal. The grant awarded can be used to purchase the dog needed, and this eventually can make the job of law enforcement in solving cases easier.
Man’s best friend, that is what many people say about dogs. This could be true because dogs have been living with humans for a long time. For years, it has been believed that a dog is a very intelligent creature so that we can use it in various activities. Its intelligence is also famous among law enforcers. Mostly they use dogs to identify explosives, drugs, or other illegal substances. On many occasions, dogs also lend their talent, skills, and gifted noses in rescue tasks to humans. They help the Search and Rescue personnel to search for victims of a disaster. They would use their gifted nose to sniff around the location where victims are believed likely to be there waiting for help. In addition to their intelligence, dogs have been very popular for their aggressiveness and courage. Those attributes can be very useful for law enforcers to detain suspects. The police K9s would bark and bite, if commanded and necessary, at suspects trying to escape.
