Dogpaw has had an ongoing relationship with our local K-9 teams, who regularly attend our fundraisers to do demonstrations, and we want to do something to show our respect and appreciation for these amazing dogs. Dogpaw is inviting our members to contribute to a special fund that we are putting together to help purchase another police dog for Vancouver. These dogs cost around $15,000 and the city does not have money budgeted for this. We have all seen the amazing services these dogs provide to our community and this is a great way to honor the memory of Dakota, who honorably served us for the past 3 years. We hope that by pooling our donations, Dogpaw can give a substantial amount on behalf of our members that will show the Vancouver Police Department how much we appreciate their efforts. Checks should be made out to Dogpaw and mailed to us at: PO Box 873667 Vancouver, Wa 98687-3667 BE SURE TO PUT "DAKOTA MEMORIAL FUND" IN THE COMMENT LINE You can also donate on our web site at _www.clarkdogpaw.org_ (http://www.clarkdogpaw.org) by following directions at the top of the page.
