Help us protect those who protect you!

Our Type IIIA protects against a .44, and 357 Magnum and 9mm. Type IIIA is better because Type II only protects up to a 9mm and 357 but not the 44 slug. All 2-legged officers receive Type IIIA, custom-fit as minimum standard, and the police dogs deserve the same protection!

Suzanne Saunders, K-9 Armor Co-Founder, Treasurer and Webdiva thanks Jason Worth, President of Banner Uniform for these K-9 Armor bulletproof vests cut from the same Kevlar© bulletproof cloth as their human partners, covering all the vital organs. Ask any K9 Handler, are you wearing Type III (3)? They will answer "yes," and if their K9 is wearing K-9 Armor, they wear the same level of protection,

Thanks to Jason at Banner Uniform, distributors of Point Blank Body Armor for allowing us to purchase the KEVLAR® vests NIJ type IIIA, fitted to each dog including patches for their department, the vital organs all protected by three bulletproof panels. Thank you Banner Uniform and Point Blank Body Armor for helping us protect all the police dogs of California.

1. K-9 Armor promises 100 percent of your donations go only to bulletproof vests for police dogs, no other purpose.

2. K-9 Armor qualifies as the only California State Non Profit Public Benefit Charity dedicated to bulletproof vests for police dogs. Public Benefit means we do not exclude, we charge no membership, and we are exempt from paying income tax to the IRS who sponsors us as the only Charity that means we receive no benefit and make no profit in protecting every law enforcement dog in California. Those who make a profit from the sale of the police dog at $10,000, to training the police dog another $10,000, to medical and food and supplies, membership fees for K9 Associations and Trial entrance fees, when fundraisers profit they also pay over 30% income tax out of those donations.

3. K-9 Armor promises all our vests meet the same Kevlar NIJ Standard .06 level Type IIIA as their handler.

4. K-9 Armor vests protect all the vital organs, made by Point Blank with three panels of type three Kevlar, to protect the tummy!

5. We believe all the police dogs deserve nothing less than their handler, nothing less than K-9 Armor!

Our Articles of Incorporation, allow you to sponsor a particular police dog for the cost of a whole vest to protect the police dog of your choice. Donations are applied to every law enforcement dog in California without exclusion, or preference we love them all and when you support K-9 Armor you can be proud we will protect all of them!

K-9 Armor is the official, California registered tax-deductible, non-profit public benefit charity approved by the California Secretary of State and Attorney General's Office, the Dept. of Justice, the CA Franchise Tax Board and Federal IRS 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, for the purpose of raising public funds to supply bulletproof K-9 Armor vests to the brave, beautiful police dogs of California.

K-9 Armor accepts donations from the public to protect California law enforcement dogs. Every time we raise the cost of a vest we purchase a Kevlar K-9 Armor vest and give it FREE to another California law enforcement dog. Most police departments and law enforcement agencies do not budget for bulletproof vests for their K-9's. Every two-legged officer and member of law enforcement who carries a gun, automatically receives a bulletproof vest and we believe their four-legged partners deserve the same protection. These brave, beautiful dogs risk their lives to protect us, help us protect them with your tax-deductible donations.

K-9 Armor started in September 2003 partnering with the Marin County Sheriff's Office until 2009 when we ended our partnership, and with their encouragement and guidance, obtained the honorable status of State Charity.

July 8, 2009 , we obtained the 501(c)(3) status as a Non Profit Public Benefit Charity for the State of California, protecting California Law Enforcement Canines with Bulletproof Vests, relying on donations to K-9 Armor.

K-9 Armor stands alone, as the sole Non Profit Public Benefit Charity that donates 100 percent of our time and funds only to bulletproof vests for every law enforcement dog in California.

Our costs include $745 for the vest plus 9% sales tax and if donated online includes the 2.5% paypal fee. All vests are custom made measured in person. Cost includes shipping (approx $30) if required, some vests are delivered in person as we cover the whole state. We publish the actual receipts on our Sponsors page to show your donations are dedicated to each vest for $875. We receive an incredible discount off the $1200 retail price (plus tax) listed by the manufacturer.

Banner Uniform Police Supply applies the police patches for no charge. They supply these Kevlar vests to us for at this incredible cost because they believe in our cause, we are the only public benefit charity dedicated only to providing free bulletproof vests without any exclusions, to all law enforcement dogs in California and 100 percent of the cost is covered by public donations.

Protect those who risk their lives to protect you,
with K-9 Armor!
