April 30, 2008 - Ben's Foundation Gives K-9 Grants to Pittsburgh2839 viewsIn the last 10 years, the Monessen police department has had two other dogs, including one provided through donations from Monessen native and former heavyweight boxing champion Michael Moorer. The department had been without a K-9 dog for about five years before Dax joined the force.

"They are the most underappreciated officer there is," said Roethlisberger, who owns a rottweiler and a Burmese mountain dog. "An officer feels pretty safe when they have a canine on their side."

April 30, 2008 - Ben's Foundation Gives K-9 Grants to Pittsburgh2750 viewsBen speaks to the media after his press conference:

"It's tough to choose who gets the dogs and the grants," Roethlisberger said at the news conference. "But we hope to continue to get more support from sponsors and to be able to keep this going. We'd love to do this every year for the rest of my career here."

January 12, 20112670 viewsOn December 30th, Ben announced the ninth and final grant of the 2010 season outside of the Pittsburgh area. The grant was awarded to the Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority Police Department (CMHAPD), located in Cleveland, Ohio. The Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority Police Department will use the grant to purchase much needed detection training supplies and protection equipment for their K-9 unit. The funds will help fill a void in the department left by the loss of Kubo, CMHAâ€™s three-year old police dog, who died on September 27, 2010 during a training exercise.

Shown in the photo: Officer John Smiddy with Chewbacca and Officer Jeffery Holdeman with Loki. They are posing with CMHA's Marketing Manager, Courtney Kilbury.
