Description
A K-9 officer faces the same if not greater risk than human officer as they are often sent in ahead of their human counterparts to apprehend suspects or investigate dangerous situations. The cost of a vest can vary due to differences in quality, material, protection level, weight, etc.
We are now letting all of the officers and deputies choose which vest they would like to protect their K-9 officer.
All vests are a bulletproof and stab proof combination. In addition, they minimize blunt trauma injuries. In the past 10 years, bullet, stab or blunt trauma injuries caused 60% of police dog deaths. The manufacturer’s warranty for the vests varies but is usually 5 years after which they need to be replaced.
