Livermore Police Departments Newest K9

Livermore K9 Foundation
On July 22, 2019 the Livermore K9 Foundation donated to the Livermore Police Department a check for $10,248.13 for the purchase of their newest K9, Drax. Drax is a one-year `old Belgium Malinois who is partnered with Officer Rob Leiva. Drax and Officer Leiva have recently completed K9 training and are now working on the streets of Livermore. Drax is trained in apprehension, narcotics and firearms recovery.
The Livermore K9 Foundation was started in 2017. Our mission is to promote training, safety, and the health of our Livermore law enforcement K9’s throughout their career and retirement. Through local fundraisers and monetary donations we continue to support our K9’s by paying for replacement dogs, community education, protective gear and equipment, specialized schools along with medical expenses for our retired K9’s. As a result, the Livermore Police K9 Foundation is proud to have been able to raise funds for the purchase of Drax.
K9’s are not only a valuable tool for crime fighting, they are also great assets while building relationships within the community. The Livermore Police K9 Foundation is happy to be a part of such an important community endeavor as the Livermore Police Department strives to build stronger community partnerships.
