June 6 is National Naloxone Awareness Day.

A day created to reduce stigma around carrying naloxone—and to remind people that being prepared can change outcomes in seconds.

In this video, a K9 handler shares something simple but powerful: he carries two doses of Narcan—one for himself, and one for his dog. Because exposure doesn’t only happen to people. Working dogs can be at risk too, especially around substances like fentanyl.

This day is observed on June 6 in honor of Victoria Siegel, and the moment that continues to drive awareness and prevention efforts forward nationwide.

Preparedness isn’t fear. It’s responsibility.

DID YOU KNOW? | K9 Education Series

A K9’s sense of smell is estimated to be up to 100,000 times more powerful than a human’s. That’s why trained working dogs can locate missing people, detect narcotics, find evidence, and assist in disaster response.

Every successful search starts with a highly trained K9 and a dedicated handler.

What an incredible experience at CrimeCon!

For our very first CrimeCon, we couldn’t have asked for a better weekend. We met so many amazing people, had the opportunity to showcase our K9s through live demonstrations, and shared an unforgettable session that gave attendees a glimpse into the work we do every day at K9s.org.

The support, conversations, and connections we made throughout the event reminded us why our mission matters. We are grateful to everyone who stopped by, attended our presentations, asked questions, and helped make this experience so special.
