There was round of applause at Tuesday night's Newport News city council meeting for a local girl taking action and getting results.
Kayleigh Crimmins has been raising money to buy bullet resistant vests for police dogs.
This one will go to a Newport News sheriff's department K-9 called Vader.
This is the fifth one she has bought with money from selling her toys on Craigslist.
"I think she is amazing I think she is determined I think she loves dogs, and there's no end to this she's made that very clear," says Kayleigh's mother Lee.
Kayleigh has also been holding yard sales and recently started a new project, 'Cans for K-9's' to help with her fundraising efforts.
I love this. I was so impressed that I looked up the cost of a vest. For a top of the line, stab resistant the cost is close to $1,000.
