When it comes to extra police officers, or new patrol cars, or life saving equipment that law enforcement agencies need, those are likely to get funded before a comfort dog does.  That’s where Oregon Working Dogs comes in.   Darin Campbell started the non-profit after he trained a service dog for his wife.  He says he realized there weren’t very many of them in the state.  He also realized it’s a lot of work and a lot of expense. Darin’s wife nominated him for our KXL Everyday Hero, saying he deserves recognition for all that he does. We agree! You can hear Darin’s story here:
