Ozzy Osbourne Helps Police Dept Get New K-9

ozzyOzzy Osbourne has agreed to donate money for a new K-9 police dog for the Muncie, Indiana Police Department.

One of the department K-9s, named Rover, was recently retired at the it’s-time-for-a-gold-watch age of 13 years. Ozzy’s son Jack, who’s friends with one of the Muncie P.D. officers, pitched the idea to his dad about helping the department fill their K-9 police dog void. According to the officer, Ozzy didn’t hesitate to fund the cost of a new dog–which is estimated to be around $10,000, including the training of the dog.

In order to keep taxpayers from footing the bill for the new police pooch, a separate group will help by raising money to cover food and veterinary costs.

    Imagine if all celebs did that, that would cut down on some taxes for people…though I’m sure they would just find other ways to tax us for something else.
