Outpouring Of Support For Injured Placer County K-9
LOOMIS (CBS13) — Placer County K-9 Eros is recovering after being shot in the line of duty earlier this week, and people are showing their love by trying to help with the costs of the injured K-9's surgery.
So much so, in fact, that Eros's handler is requesting all donations for Eros go instead to a local nonprofit.
Deputies ask people to make those donations to the Foothills K-9 Association, a nonprofit that works with K-9s and handlers. Foothills K-9 Association provides protective gear, medical trauma kits, and other essentials.
