Meet The K9s & Handlers

When people join together to do what is right for our children.  Amazing things will happen. Help place Electronic Detection K9's with law enforcement.  The more K9's donated to help fight children's crime the more children will be rescued and more offenders will be prosecuted.  As a community, we need to do what we can to help fight the horrible crimes against our children.   Become Part Of Defenders For Children's, Operation 180 Turn Around Task-Force.   Click here to HELP... We can t do it without your help.   

We hire the best Trainers in the US used for our K9s. Matrix K9

Saving and protecting children is our mission, that is why we are excited to announce Defenders For Children's new partnership with Matrix K9. 

It is extremely important that the best K9s are donated and the best handler training is completed to be sure that NO devices are left behind.
