Our K9 Unit is dedicated to serving both our community and fellow law enforcement through a wide range of specialized services. Each K9 team is trained in multiple disciplines to maximize their effectiveness and ability to respond to a variety of situations.

The most common service provided by our K9s is the detection of illegal and dangerous narcotics, but their capabilities extend far beyond that. All of our teams are trained in tracking and assist in locating fleeing suspects, lost individuals, and missing children. In addition, several of our teams are specially trained in explosive detection and play an important role in helping ensure the safety of community events, public spaces, and buildings.

Beyond detection and tracking, our K9s are trained to protect their handlers and assist officers in dangerous situations. They can safely apprehend individuals who pose a threat to law enforcement or the public, and even assist in locating evidence and lost property during investigations.

Our K9 teams visit schools, churches, and local organizations to educate the public and build positive relationships. The bond between our handlers and canine partners is built through hundreds of hours of training and service, and we’re proud to share these incredible teams with our community.
