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.
