Therapy K9 Rosie got SO much love today at the Early Child Development Lab’s Touch-a-Truck event!

Please join us in welcoming and congratulating the newest members of the University of Illinois Police Department K9 Unit: Officer Candance Williams and K9 Remy!

Officer Williams and K9 Remy graduated from MidproK9 this morning after completing six weeks of training. Following their graduation, the team was officially certified by the North American Police Work Dog Association (NAPWDA). We are grateful to Tony, Garla, and Hannah from MidProK9 for their exceptional training, Bert from NAPWDA for coming to certify the team this afternoon, and to Willard Airport for letting us use the lobby for certification!

K9 Remy is a nearly two-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer. He is certified in Explosive Odor Tracking (EOT) and Explosive Ordnance Detection (EOD). The pair will work alongside our other K9 teams to ensure the safety of large campus events, including Illinois football and basketball games and concerts.

We are incredibly proud of Officer Williams and K9 Remy, and we are excited to have them on the K9 team!
