We knew we had some great K9 teams on the local police force, now they have been awarded.
Here is the Press Release from TTPD:
We are extremely proud to share with you guys that our two canine teams won first place as a department on the national level last week at the National Detector Dog Field Trials, which included teams from state and federal agencies from across the country – including the New York Police Department and the CIA.
Officer Aaron Lewis and his partner Absurd and Officer Cole Bredenberg and his partner Thor were invited to participate in the competition after their exemplary performances at the regional trials in May. The canines and their handlers competed in narcotics and explosives detection with the goal of obtaining a national certification in detection work over a two-day period.
Officer Bredenberg and Thor placed seventh in the individual scores and fourth in vehicle detection.
Please join us as we congratulate Officers Lewis and Bredenberg and their canine partners on this amazing accomplishment. These teams train very hard to serve and protect the people of our community on a daily basis, and we are extremely proud when they get the opportunity to show off those hard-earned skills to others around the country.
