Please Welcome K-9 Indy #353
Please welcome retired K-9 “Indy,” a Dual-Purpose Patrol/Narcotics Detection Dog, to the Project K-9 Hero Pack, as our 353rd Program Member, from the Trophy Club Police Department, Texas.
Indy, an eleven-year old German Shepherd, faithfully served his community for nine and a half years, certified in Narcotics Detection, Patrol Apprehension, Tracking, and SWAT. His deployments include assisting 38 other Law Enforcement agencies, and conducting over 50 public demonstrations for the local schools and children.
Over the course of his career, Indy not only contributed to countless successful operations, but also became a beloved figure in his community. His retirement video went viral on social media, gaining millions of views and national recognition. He was featured on Fox News, CBS Nightly News in their “Heart of America” segment, and even appeared with his Handler on the Dr. Phil Show, highlighting the deep impact working dogs can have both in service and in the hearts of those they protect.
Since Indy’s retirement in March 2024, Indy was diagnosed with gastroenterocolitis, which is an inflammation of the stomach, small intestine, and colon. He is currently in need of seeing a specialist for this condition, and having an ultrasound done to determine how to treat the swollen intestines. Indy was also recently placed on a costly prescription food to help with his ongoing medical issues.
In retirement, all costs of Indy’s medical bills now fall soley on his Handler, who is still currently serving as a Police Officer. As of today, we are honored to step up immediately and pay for Indy’s medical care, office visits, necessary prescription food, medication, and any future diagnostic testing or surgeries for the rest of his life at 100%.
Please take a moment to welcome K-9 Indy as our 353rd Pack Member, as we are honored to serve another Hero from the great State of Texas!
Our Medical Fund will help ensure that we always have funding for Heroes like Indy. Please donate today to continue supporting our life-saving abilities.
