Patrick D. Smith, Lakewood chief of police, left, recently accepted a $700 donation from the Lakewood First Lions Club towards purchasing Kevlar vests for their police dogs. Standing on the right is police officer Joshua Repp and his dog Hawk.
Congratulations!
Excellent choice and wonderful news.
Thank you.
Good article! Concise, factual and nicely illustrated to present aspects of Lions and LPD operations to make Lakewood a better place.
This article does not mention how much a Kevlar vest for dogs cost. Would be interested.
