K9 Creed & K9 Armour
The AVPD Canine Unit was established in 2016 with its first police dog, K9 Creed. Creed’s handler, Andrea, made history as both the department’s first female officer and first K9 handler. A U.S. Army veteran, Andrea began her law enforcement career in 2004 and has been training and handling working and pet dogs since 2016. K9 Creed, a European-born German Shepherd, served from 2016 to 2024 and was certified in narcotics detection and patrol operations. Creed was trained to respond to commands in Dutch, German, and English. Andrea’s second working canine, K9 Armour, is a German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois mix from Europe, trained and certified in explosive detection and patrol work.
Our nonprofit, the K9 Creed Armour Program, was founded in 2021 to raise funds for the protective gear and specialized equipment working dogs need to stay safe on the job. Every item purchased and every donation received goes directly toward equipping canine units with life-saving protection. Our canine apparel was created by our unit to support not only our dogs, but K9 teams everywhere. Thank you for supporting those who protect and serve—on four legs!
