🐾🏆 Huge congratulations to Roseville PD K9 Officer Mitch Christensen (K9 Cal) and Officer Zach Wiesner (K9 Rooster) on their outstanding performance at the United States Police Canine Association Region 18 PD1 Trials in Olmsted County!
Teaming up with City of Crystal PD K9 Ace and Hudson WI PD K9 Maverick and their handlers, the regional squad brought the heat and earned an impressive 2nd Place Team Finish, just behind a very strong St. Croix County team.
Individually, our Roseville teams delivered standout performances, highlighted by near-perfect scores in both Suspect Search and Bite Work; both high-pressure events that test skill, precision, and teamwork at the highest level.
And yes… putting Rooster and Maverick on the same team felt like something straight out of Top Gun: Maverick—fast, intense, and unforgettable. ✈️🐕🔥
We're proud of our Roseville PD K9 teams and the entire regional team for representing with professionalism and excellence. 👏🚔💙
