Kevin Atlee, DMD to protect, serve local Police K-9 Units

May 24, 2010 - PRLog -- "Canines" and "K-9's" are the same thing. Right? Well, no, not in this case. We're talking about the canines in your mouth, your teeth, and Police K-9 dogs. Kevin Atlee, DMD of Moorestown, NJ has combined his passion for both Canines and K-9's by creating the Canines for K-9's program to raise money for local law enforcement. Through the summer of 2010, the goal is to buy as many K-9 bullet proof vests as possible and protect the four-legged heroes who protect us every day.

The next time you open up and say "Ahh" at the dentist, you could be helping to outfit a police dog. Every time Dr. Atlee works on a patient's eye teeth (the canine teeth) he contributes $10. Does a trip to the dentist make you growl? There are other ways to join the force: visit the the Canines for K-9's Facebook Fan Page to view news and updates, make a private donation and purchase a custom-made graphic T-shirt. Generous companies and individuals can even buy whole vests for $650 right from the Facebook page.

Each donated vest helps relieve the financial burden on Police departments and K-9 handlers who often buy equipment with their own money. Proper vests only last a few years, so there is always a need for replacements.

For more information about Canines for K-9's, please contact Darren Atlee, Coordinator at: 856-234-8686 or darren.atlee@gmail.com.
