Without the ongoing support of our treasured donors, we could not sustain our K9 Officer programs. Because of this support, the Rüdiger Foundation has been able to help local law enforcement agencies acquire and provide on-going support to three K9 Officers (Rüdiger, Kano and Ranger) and provide on-going support to State Parks retired K9 Miro.

The Rüdiger Foundation is a 100% volunteer supported organization. Every dollar donated is put toward important program needs. Donate today to keep these valuable K9s in our community.
