The Elkhart County Sheriff’s Department is getting another K9 and equipment for the new dog thanks to a local company.
Keystone RV has donated $10,000 to the sheriff’s department to go towards adding a third K9 to the department. There’s currently three K9s on the force in Elkhart County, two in corrections and one on patrol.
“Our law enforcement needs all the tools they can possible get. They do great things as they protect and serve. As a leader in our community we at Keystone RV feel we should step up and help,” said Matt Zimmerman, Keystone RV Company CEO, in a press release.
“This is not something we budget for, so we do count on local companies and partners in the community to provide this service, so it’s really encouraging for the Sheriff’s office to receive this today,” Sheriff Brad Rogers said in a press release.
The sheriff’s department says they’re thankful for the donation.
