K-9 'Axel' Needs Your Help!

Hingham P.D.'s working K-9, Axel, is on the mend from surgery on his rear knee, and he needs your help.
 
Axel is one of Hingham Police Department's toughest crime fighters and a valued member of the department.  Highly skilled both in tracking and narcotics detection, he plays a vital role in keeping both the community and the officers safe. 
 
Axel’s food and routine veterinary care are covered through private donations. However, his recent surgery, which cost $3,300. will more than deplete that account.
 
Hingham police are seeking donations to help pay for Axel’s operation. 
To donate to Axel’s recovery fund contact the Hingham Police K-9 Unit, Hingham Police Department, 212 Central St., Hingham, MA 02043.
