I was awarded the Lake Oswego Chief of Police Department's Certificate and Challenge Coin for community service for completing these portraits

Lake Oswego Police Department

K-9 Corps Portrait Paintings

Below are paintings of the Lake Oswego K-9 Corps - Charger and Kai. In the background are views of Lake Oswego and one of the canals.

I am happy to honor these dogs with these portraits, bringing increased public awareness of the service the K-9 Corps provides for our community. The canines risk their lives along with their officer/handlers as they accompany the officers while on duty. The bond they share is a strong one, as the dogs live with the officers' families also.

These paintings are on permanent display at the Lake Oswego City Hall.

~ Charger was raised by Suzanne Eviston - breeder of quality German Shepherds from European Bloodlines
