K9s hard at work at the Pro Football Hall of Fame
Even though the Hall of Fame game was subsequently cancelled due to poor and dangerous field conditions, it’s good to know K-9 Zayne was on the job, clearing the locker room for the Colts.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

Friday Funny: Police Dog Agility
If you’re being chased by a police dog, try not to go through a tunnel, then onto a little seesaw, then weave through a bunch of poles. They’re trained for that.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

Go, Dog, Go!
Ever wonder how fast a police dog can run? Check out this short video from the Vietnam Dog Handler Association.
Notice the suspect behind the car, apparently firing a gun – you see the smoke from the muzzle, and a split second later – the Shepherd Police Dog leaps across the roof of the auto, clamps onto the suspect, and brings him down so quickly – you’ll watch it several times to really appreciate the valor of this dog.
It appears to me that this may have been a training exercise, as the “suspect” looks like he’s wearing padded gear to protect him from the dog, but whether it’s a real take-down or not, the dog is still pretty darn impressive!
Everybody now, “Bad boy, bad boy, whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?”
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

Police Dog Retirement
A video published by my hometown newspaper, The (Canton) Repository. It shows Zeke, a police dog who is retiring, and his handler, K-9 Officer Chris Heslop. I was struck by the emotion in his voice when he talks about Zeke, and what his retirement will mean to the officer and his family.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
One Last Ride for K-9 Officer Kora
From the Hartford Courant via Life With Dogs: Kora, an 11-year old German Shepherd, retired in August after nine years of service with the West Hartford K-9 Unit. Everyone expected her to live out her retirement with her handler, Officer Eric Rocheleau. However, he noticed that she was beginning to seem sluggish, so he took her to the vet last Monday.
