The Wasco County Sheriff’s Office K-9 Xena will receive a bullet and stab protective vest thanks to a charitable donation from non-profit organization Vested Interest in K9s. The Sheriff’s Office says K-9 Xena’s vest will be embroidered with the sentiment “In memory of Ruby Sue.” Delivery is expected within eight to ten weeks. Vested Interest in K9s is a charity whose mission is to provide bullet and stab protective vests and other assistance to dogs of law enforcement and related agencies throughout the United States. This potentially lifesaving body armor for four-legged K9 officers is American made and custom fitted. Vested Interest in K9s, Inc. accepts tax-deductible contributions in any amount, while a single donation of $960 will sponsor one vest. For more information on how to donate, go to www.vik9s.org.
