NPRPD in the Community – Photo Galleries
When not busy protecting and serving the City, the New Port Richey Police Department enjoys getting out and meeting the community ranging from kids to seniors, and let’s not forget their pets. The NPRPD protects the citizens of NPR which make these professional law enforcement officers a strong ingredient of the foundation of the City services. They care enough to want to get to know the good people that live, work, and visit New Port Richey. If you catch them in those times where duty hasn’t called just yet, you will not be surprised to see a smiling face to that officer.

We found a new recruit for the New Port Richey Police Department’s K9 Unit even though Dalmatians are usually fire dogs! K9 Officer Eck and K9 Officer Fitch with their partners against crime, Shadow and Havoc, respectively. Thanks to The Doggie Salon (that’s owner Janis in the spots) and Dented Keg Ale Works for this fundraising Bark Fest for the K9 Unit. Both businesses are in the Stonehaven Shops just across the bridge on the US19 side corner of Main Street and River Road. Visit them along with other great businesses and services at Stonehaven, River Plaza, and the shopping center across the street!
