Newark, Ohio Police K9 Unit

We would like to thank Packaging Corporation of America (PCA) for allowing the K-9 units of Licking County to utilize their former manufacturing facility for training.

The building provided a great new environment for our K-9 teams to put in some work conducting narcotics searches and gave the dogs an opportunity to train in a large, unfamiliar setting.

We greatly appreciate PCA’s support and willingness to provide a valuable training opportunity for our local K-9 teams. 🐕‍🦺🇺🇸

It is extremely hot outside today, ensure your K9 partners in the cruiser are not forgotten. Verify the heat alarms are activated and functioning. If you encounter an unattended K9 cruiser with flashing overhead lights and a sounding horn, immediately contact 911, allowing the dispatcher to notify the handler.

Xudo experienced a rejuvenating puppy spa day at I & R Puppy Spa in Utica, Ohio today, and I'm thrilled to express heartfelt gratitude to the staff for providing exceptional care, leaving him refreshed and radiant, with most of the hair remarkably transferred from him to me.
