HOBBS, NEW MEXICO - Three members of the Hobbs Police Department are wagging their tails thanks to an anonymous donation.

Alex, Bach, and Denis, now have added protection when they're sent in to sniff out a crime scene.

A community member donated more than $2,000 to outfit the Belgian Malinois K-9 Unit with protective vests.
