Butler City Police are receiving help from a local fund to help continue their K-9 officer program.
During Thursday’s meeting of Butler City Council, Leanne Heaton announced a donation of $30,000 from the Glenn R Logan and Rhea Jean McCandless Logan Family Trust which generously supports many local organizations to meet the needs to local residents.
This money will be placed into a secure account used to purchase and train replacement dogs at the Pittsburgh Police Training Center when the current dogs retire in three or four years.
K9 officer Chooch began working with Lieutenant Brian Grooms in early 2020 and K9 officer Rico has been partnered with Officer Andrew Niederlander since that time as well. Care for these law enforcement animals comes entirely from grants and community contributions.
