Church members generously provided breakfast before the training, followed by an informative presentation focused on legal updates and best practices for K9 operations.

We would like to extend our appreciation to:

• Attorney John Peters for conducting an outstanding and informative training.

• Trenly for providing K9 supply bags to nearly 100 officers in attendance.

These demonstrations highlight the extensive training, discipline, and teamwork between K9s and their handlers, and the important role they play in public safety.
