INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
On June 29, 2021, a memorandum of understanding between the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office
and the Oakland County Deputy Sheriff’s Association (“Union”) created a Therapy Canine Program
within the Sheriff’s Office. The Training Unit is responsible for ensuring each Handler is up to date
on training including, but not limited to, obedience, certification, and service/therapy training with
certification from a nationally recognized therapy training association. The Therapy Canine Handlers
are sworn personnel and the Therapy Canine Program will be supervised by the Training Unit.
This is a request to accept a donation of one support canine dog named Georgie from Mission
Oakland, which is a 501(c)3 (non-profit), established in 2019, with a mission to support the Oakland
County Sheriff’s Office, community organizations within Oakland County, and to lend financial
assistance to those who are battling hardship and illness within the law enforcement community.

Dear County of Oakland,
It is with great pleasure that Mission Oakland, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, announces the
donation of one Therapy Canine to the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office to use throughout their
organization to serve the community. Mission Oakland is proud to donate Therapy Canine
Georgie to the Sheriff’s Office and relinquishes all ownership, responsibility, and rights for these
Therapy Canines. The total value of the Therapy Canine is $3,000. Further, all financial
obligations and care of the canines will no longer be the responsibility of Mission Oakland.
Mission Oakland is honored to be able to provide this Therapy Canine to the Oakland County
Sheriff’s Office and wishes Georgie as well as his handler the best in their very important role in
the agency and with the citizens they serve.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Miles
Director
