The crime-fighting dogs of the NYPD offered a helping paw to their canine counterparts serving overseas this holiday season — collecting doggie supplies and treats for Yuletide care packages.
The NYPD’s ESU K9 Unit helped gather about 30 boxes of medical supplies, toys, shampoos, nail clippers and thank-you letters from school children over the past several days as part of “Operation War Dogs.†The nearly $6,000 in supplies will be shipped out to Afghanistan over the weekend.
The K9 unit teamed up with Blue Lives Matter-NYC K9, the city Correction Department’s K9 officers, the 102nd Precinct Detective Squad and the law enforcement motorcycle club Vigilance LEMC to help fill the care packages.
