NICEVILLE, Fla. — The Niceville Police Department has expanded its fundraising effort for a new police K-9 by adding an online donation option, as the campaign has raised $5,025 so far, according to the department.
The Niceville Police Department said it is raising funds to replace K-9 Blue, who was killed in the line of duty in 2022, and to prepare for the planned retirement of K-9 Kodi in 2026.
Police K-9s assist officers with narcotics detection, missing person searches, and community engagement, the department said.
Officials said donations will go directly toward purchasing a new K-9 and essential service equipment, including a K-9 vehicle. The department has added a donation link and QR code to allow residents to contribute electronically, while continuing to accept cash and check donations in person.

Additional information is available by calling 850-729-4030, the department said.
