There's Trouble ... in York County!
Trouble is coming .... and that's a GREAT thing!
Allow us to introduce you to Trouble the Dog®
Trouble the Dog® is a plush toy children can share all their “troubles” with. With a listening ear, Trouble helps children with a smile. Trouble the Dog is a gift to those children who might need a hug. A proven therapy dog, Trouble is “on call” 24/7.
Debbie Leanne Portraits will be teaming up with On Command Dog Training, to bring Trouble the Dog® to the York-Poquoson Sheriff’s Office, through The Kennek Foundation‘s, Trouble on the Scene.
The goal of the Trouble on the Scene program is to supply Trouble plush dogs for every police cruiser, ambulance, and fire and rescue truck in the community so that officers have something comforting readily available in the event of an accident, fire, domestic situation, or other emergency that involves children. The police division’s participation in the program is fully funded by donations from local businesses and individual citizens.
And that's where YOU come in...
