Washoe County K9 Partners

Our Story

The Washoe County K9 Partners began in 1996 when a kindergarten class raised funds for a bulletproof vest for a local K9 named Jimi. This heartfelt initiative led to the formation of a dedicated volunteer support organization for the K9 division of the Washoe County Sheriff Department, officially becoming a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in May 2016.

Impact

Since its inception, the organization has successfully provided essential equipment and training for K9 teams, ensuring their safety and effectiveness in serving the community.
