The Hudson Police Department is implementing its very first K9 program and adding its first member to the K9 Unit after securing sufficient funding through generous donations from the public. 

The Hudson Police Department secured funding for the purchase of K9 "Gary", a 1 ½-year-old black Labrador, through a partnership with Liberty Energy and Verdad Resources. Back the Blue K9 Force; a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, dedicated to assisting law enforcement agencies with K9 programs, made it possible for tax-deductible donations.

Without the commitment from Liberty Energy and Verdad Resources, the purchase of K9 Gary would not have been possible. The Hudson Police Department and the citizens of Hudson appreciate Liberty Energy and Verdad Resources’ support to help provide a crime-free place to live and work.

“Liberty is proud to support the communities in which we live and work. Partnering with the Hudson Police Department and Verdad Resources in the funding of their new K9 unit is not only helping our local community but building the foundation for our relationship for years to come. Liberty is looking forward to watching the K9 program grow.”
