–The Kossuth County Sheriff’s Office recently completed a fundraising effort to help support their K9 Officer program. Sheriff Roger Fisher says they are grateful to everyone who purchased a raffle ticket, as the funds help supplement the department’s K9 budget.
Fisher says the initial costs of purchasing a K9 and then training the animal can vary.
The fact that K9’s will need to be replaced on a much more frequent basis than a typical Deputy means the Department needs to make sure funding is available when needed.
If you have questions or would like to support the K9 program, you can contact the Kossuth County Sheriff’s Office by calling 515-295-3514.
