The White Settlement Police Department is set to harness the power of the community's dog walkers to boost neighborhood watch efforts. According to the White Settlement Police Department, the next meeting for the Dog Walker Watch program will take place this Thursday, April 18th, at 8900 Clifford Street.

Slated for a 5 p.m. start, the initiative calls upon canine lovers and their companions to help serve as an extra set of eyes and ears for local law enforcement. In a statement by the White Settlement Police Department, the event is "for all active participants and volunteers, as well as anyone else in the community that would like to register their furry friend and join our program."

The Dog Walker Watch program, which is part of the National Association of Town Watch, equips dog walkers with the necessary know-how to effectively observe and report suspicious activity. This community policing effort seeks not only to reduce crime but also to strengthen the bond between police officers and the communities they serve.

The local police department's initiative is open to all, offering an opportunity for community members to get actively involved in the safety of their neighborhood. Interested individuals are encouraged to come out and "register their furry friend and join our program," as noted by the White Settlement Police Department. The event promises to be both informative and inclusive, ensuring that the community's smallest members have the potential to make a big impact. "See you there!" the post concluded.
