Taking care of those who took care of us…
When a police dog retires the handler assumes all the costs. This includes food, shelter and often-extensive medical expenditures. Unlike their human partners, these crime fighters don't have a medical plan. That's where the San Diego Police Canine Association steps in.
Donating is one of the best things you can do.
With your generous donations we help offset the expenses of giving our canine crime fighters a well deserved retirement.
Meet Our Retirees
Nero
Nero was certified as a Police Dog in 2014. He currently lives his life on a five acre ranch with his handler.
Ufo
Ufo is a 10 year old german shepherd living his retired life with his handler. Ufo has been the star in many success stories during his long career with his handler. Just recently because of your donations he was able to receive $4,000 in emergency vet care from VCA. He will continue his life guarding the chickens, swimming laps in the pool, and roaming the yard.
We would like to publicly thank our sponsor at Veterinary Imaging Center of San Diego located at 7522 Clairemont Mesa Blvd, for assisting with Ufo’s emergency care ultimately saving his life. Thank you for all you do!
