Police K9s are often on the front lines of danger, alongside men and women in uniform.

 

However the difference lies in that police officers wear bullet-proof vests under their uniforms.

 

The St. Paul Police K9 Foundation is working to provide each dog with a custom-fit vest. On Saturday, the foundation received a heartfelt donation from a fourth grader.

 

Nine-year-old Ethan Flint asked his friends and family not to give him birthday gifts this year and to instead use the money to go toward bulletproof vests for the St. Paul K9 unit. He presented a homemade check for $1,290 to the K9 unit on Saturday. "And everyone who donated I just want to say thanks to them," Ethan said.
