Dexter Police Department Receives Substantial Donation from Nestle Purina

The city of Dexter, Missouri received substantial support from the Nestle Purina Bloomfield, MO factory for two major projects.

The Dexter Police department received $10,000 from Nestle Purina to help train a new K9 Officer named Knox who is a 2-year old German Shepard.

The police department lost one of their K9 officers last year and they needed local support to raise the funds to place Knox in the department. Knox and his handler Officer Forkum and the Dexter Chief of Police Trevor Pulley visited the Nestle Purina Bloomfield factory for the donation. Knox performed his favorite task of tracking through a staged search. He found everything he was looking for and even found some special sugar cookies with his name and badge on them. Knox was presented with a gift basket containing Purina ProPlan dog food, Purina Dog treats and several K9 officer friendly toys, dog dishes, leashes, bandanas, blankets and a new bed.

The city of Dexter also received a donation of $10,000 from Nestle Purina to help build an off-leash Dog Park in town. Nestle Purina believes that having a dog park in the community is a great asset and brings people and pets together. Emily Garner, Christa Tucker, Vicky Breece and Nona Robinson from the City of Dexter visited the Bloomfield factory to receive the donation on behalf of the city. The donation made by Nestle Purina will help pay for items in Phase 1 of the project which includes fencing, trash receptacles and cameras. Phase 2 of the project will include play equipment and a building. The City Parks department will be taking care of general Maintenance of the park. Nestle Purina and the rest of the community is looking forward to the grand opening of the park.
