Meet the Stars of the 2019 Vancouver K-9 Calendar

A member of the Vancouver Police Department came up with the idea for an amazing K-9 calendar in order to raise money for cancer research and facilities after he lost his wife to breast cancer back in 2004. The calendar, which is now in its tenth year, features these most noble of dogs together with their K-9 handlers. It's time for you to meet its stars:
