Video from KOLO about Barks & Badges

Today, Diana Lee from K9 Partners, along with Sgt. Nemeth, and Deputy Grulli with K9 Jett were on KOLO Channel 8, talking about the Barks and Badges event happening this weekend. They talked about everything we have scheduled and how they want the public to meet the dogs. Diana also hinted at a BIG reveal that will be done at the event and if you want to be among the first to know, be at Bartley Ranch this weekend.

Barks & Badges This Weekend!

Don’t forget this is happening this coming weekend! This will be a great event and it looks like the weather will cooperate to give us a warm, sunny day for this fun and interesting event. Lots of vendors will be there and we have a few food trucks. Hope to see ya’ll there!

Great Fun at Consign Furniture

K9 Partners was delighted to be asked to be at Consign Furniture’s first-ever Trunk ‘n’ Treat event! Two Washoe County Sheriff’s Office K9 Teams joined us to give the little trick or treaters a chance to meet Odin and Ava. The dogs were a big hit!

Isn’t this a great sunset shot? All photos from this event were taken by Diana Lee.

The costumes were adorable, scary, and so creative! A DJ kept the music going and the kids dancing. Food and craft vendors filled the parking lot! We had a great time handing out candy, trading cards, and stickers. Here’s a few photos from the evening’s event.

Groundbreaking for Liberty Dogs Campus

From the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page:

Washoe County Sheriff Darin Balaam and members of the WCSO K9 Unit recently attended the groundbreaking of the new Liberty Dogs Campus.

The facility, which will be constructed south of downtown Damonte Ranch in Reno, will provide some of our nation’s veterans with a chance to lead a more fulfilling and independent life with the companionship of a service dog.

Because we all know how much help a dog can be!
The Liberty Dogs program is the creation of Northern Nevada residents Dave and Cheryl Duffield and is financially supported by the Dave & Cheryl Duffield Foundation.

Many Thanks to Consign Furniture

This past Wednesday, K9 Partners and several of the Washoe County K9 Teams met at Consign Furniture to receive a donation to K9 Partners. Consign is one of our consistent donors and we are so grateful for their continued support. Even with the rough times we have all gone through over the past two-and-a-half years, support for the K9s have enabled K9 Partners to continue to assist with necessary equipment and training to keep our communities safe. Thank you so much.

Here’s a few pictures from Wednesday:
