The Limestone County Sheriff’s Department has received a generous donation of body armor specifically designed for its four K-9 officers, enhancing their safety in potentially hazardous situations. This specialized body armor is crafted to shield the canine officers from both gunfire and stabbing attacks, ensuring they are better protected while performing their duties.
The donation comes from Vested Interest in K9s, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing protective gear for police dogs across the nation. Each vest is manufactured in the United States and is tailored to fit each K-9 officer perfectly, ensuring maximum comfort and effectiveness. The cost of each vest exceeds $1,000, and they are accompanied by a warranty that lasts for five years, underscoring the commitment to quality and durability in the protection of these valuable working animals.
