He established a GoFundMe page in a bid to receive donations which would allow him to buy more vests for the brave dogs serving in the police force. In February of 2018, Brady had enough money to buy his first four vests for the Ohio State Troopers. From there, the only way was up.<\/p>\n
Brady took his mission seriously, writing to his local congressmen for help and spreading the word so that more people knew what he was trying to achieve.<\/p>\n
Before long, Brady\u2019s K9 Fund was created, a nonprofit organisation set up to raise money to supply bulletproof vests to police and military dogs.<\/p>\n
Fast forward to present day, and Brady\u2019s K9 Fund has supplied 257 dogs with protective vests, raising an incredible $315,000 total.<\/p>\n
Speaking to CNN, Brady\u2019s mom Leah said: \u201cWe were watching the show together and I didn\u2019t even notice that the dog wasn\u2019t wearing a vest. I was quite surprised that a child at age eight could recognise that there was an issue there, and that he could find a solution to fix that problem. It made me very proud to see him doing this.\u201d<\/p>\n
What\u2019s more, Brady has stated his intention is to become a police officer like his stepfather when he grows up, so that he can protect others and keep people safe.<\/p>\n
