I am not a law enforcment officer but I have seen both K-9 and Officers of the Sacramento county Sheriffs Dept and the Highway Patrol and I am very inprest with what I have seen. these K-9 and the partners work as one and it is very interesting to watch them work. Keep up the great job you are doing and keep each other safe. and the web site is great. I wish Sac PD had a web site also.

I am interesting to know how you are handling your dogs comparing how we do it in a jail in Switzerland.
It is very interesting to read your homepage.

kind regards
Marcel

Great site, keep up the good work.

it is funny may husband calls me billi in his language it means cat and you are so sweet your eyes are so clever you diogi nemo and many others
my love for all of you passed away and alive is forever i belive more in you than any human

I am looking for information in regards to the set up of our own K9 Association. I have browsed your website and am very impressed. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I'm a policeofficer I'm Danish K9. I'm unfurnate in that disastruos situation, that i have got my dog suspended for line of duty. The things he can
1 : Search for clue's on a crimscene (blood, knifes, amunition, sperms, hair, burialed things and a lot more)
2 : follow a track of a person in up to 12 hours
3 : Search for people.
4 : search for bigger things in a big area (clotes, guns, bicycle's).
5 : He can divide a crowd a bunch of fightning people
6 : protect the handler
7 : Attack on command
8 : the dressur/training by fot is very good (perfect)
I'm bringing him with me in to US in the beginning of afpril month to sell him. The dog simply to good and would be shameless not letting him working.
I know this dog is worth a lot money. I have spend about 1000 - 1300 hour's mostly training at my job and ofcourse at real crimenal acts. If i find the right handler the price will go down a lot.
My regards Kaare L Madsen.

Hello,

I thought you might enjoy my newest book, Badge on My Collar--A Chronicle of Courageous Canines. The foreword was written by the Exec. Director of the U.S Police Canine Assoc. It can be viewed on www.authorhouse.com, www.authorhouse.co.uk, barnesandnoble.com,amazon.com and on the USPCA website.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police will be using the book as a prize in their monthly Name the Puppy Contest for Canadian children. This book profiles 15 memorable dogs, including the only K9 killed at the WTC on 9/11.

If you have a newsletter that reviews books, you can get one free by emailing pressreleases@authorhouse.com

Best wishes,

Marilyn

I have always been impressed by police and security dogs. The canine police officers in the tribute stories should be remembered as proud and loyal members of their respective police departments.

GOOD JOB OUT THERE

Hi,

Congratulations on a superb Web site - excellent. I am a retired K9 Handler from Coventry in the West Midlands - I now reside in the sunshine on the south coast of the UK.
Looking at your site brings back so many memories - both good and sad.

Wishing you all the very best from the UK.

nice site and fotos.keep up de good work

hi guys. Great site. Regards from a danish k-9 officer.

I just wanted to say that It is my dream to work as a K9 officer. I am entering the Police Department of New York City this January. I am looking forward to a career in this field in the future. I also wanted to say that you guys are a huge inspiration to me and I cannot wait to join the unit.

K-9 is the future of Law Enforcement. Providing safety to officers and quicker criminal apprehension.

Special Thanks to the trainers, handlers and all dogs who served.

Hello.
I am looking forward to be a Polcie Officer and with a K9 unit. This site has been a super help to me.

Nice website !
Best regards from France
We are french police K9 trainers

My dog is a very loving dog but she loves to protectbut she is a pitbull.

A short comment about the College Greens East demonstration by the K9's. IT WAS WONDERFUL and all the attending residents really were impressed by the show. Thank you SSDK9!!!!!

Regarding Diana Hughes comment,, We wish we could just go and get a dog from the pound. However the dogs that we need usually exhibit drives and behaviors that make them fail the temperament test at the shelters. We have found one dog that had the unique drives that are needed to be a working police dog and he is currently working for the Stockton Police Department. When looking for a new K9 partner the handler may look and test numerous dogs before finding one that they feel will be able to pass the training both physically and mentally. Even after those dogs are selected they often wash out of training.

I wish it was as easy as just going and getting a new dog though.
K96 Kyle and Rocky

Many many thanks to the department and to Deputy Le Couve with K-9 Dantes for your work in helping to defeat AB1634, the Pet Extinction Act. This bill would be the end of working K-9s and their inestimable benefit to law enforcement and the lives of their handlers. Your comportment, appearance and demeanor during the Capitol appearance today reflect your high level of training and commitment and the justifiable pride you take in your service.
Great job, deputy LeCouve and Dantes!

The K9 team is in a class of its own! Ive watched how bonded the officer and his k9 partner are its so awsome....shawn after reading your story im very touched....Ive observed how well you handle your k9 partner ...we met one night fruitridge&powerInn....Your a professional as they come! W/RESPECT Scotty

The Sheriff Canine Unit will be at our community park for a working demostration on August 4th. 10:00 AM Come to see the k-9's work, meet the officers and have a quick lunch for $4.00.

Crawford's Barn, College Greens East, corner of
Tiber and Linda Rio
Tiber is off Folsom Blvd. between Watt and Bradshaw.

I think the relationship and dedication between an officer and their K-9 partner is wonderful, but I would like to know why they are imported with a price tag of $5500, when our animal shelters are full of dogs needing a home. Some that are very loving and capable of being trained?

It was good to see the K9 crew at the Capitol Airshow today and met Officer Amos and others in the area. Amos says that I am wearing a nice shirt today. I want to express that message about my shirt. And it did send the message to places I go in Nevada and Oregon for the past few months ago. I get greetings with car horns and a friendly thumbs up just because they care about the K9 dogs who does thier job on the line of duty. So I do feel good to carry the message to anyone who sees my shirt I am wearing. Keep up the great work on this website with all the support is growing day by day.

Prior to attending veterinary medical school I severed as a deputy sheriff/K-9 handler in Montana. I have a great understanding and respect for the training and work you put in and how wonderful the feeling is when you dog makes that tough find! Keep up the good work, your community supports you!

IT IS JUST A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE TO VIEW THIS WEB SITE, ESPECIALLY THE VIDIOS OF THE K-9'S AND HANDLERS. SACRAMENTO IS SO PROUD OF OUR OFFICERS WHO DO SO MUCH FOR OUR SAFETY. I ADMIRE EACH OF YOU AND YOUR K-9 FRIENDS.
PLEASE SUPPORT THIS SITE, EVERY DOLLAR HELPS!

I saw the news story on KCRA Channel 3 last night and was very impressed with the dogs and their handlers. I'm so glad the dogs have received bullet-proof vests. This is long past due.

Keep up the good work you do!

I saw the story on the news tonight and was wondering what happens to the dogs after they are retired. Are they ever put up for adoption?

Do you sell the K-9 trial T-shirts on-line...I got one as a gift...I've been asked by many where I got it...you should sell them on your web site...they are very special...thanx p.b.

I am a Public Safety Officer for the Airport Authority in Lansing Michigan. I will be attending K9 school for my 2nd partner in August for explosives detection. I am really looking forward to this assignment, as it has been 8 years since my first go around ended in 1998 with my narcotics dectection Golden Retriever Lucy. I was Lucy's 2nd handler and she served faithfully for 8 years in total between 2 Departments. She gave her all and passed in May of 2000.

I am very excited about my new assignment and can't wait to get going. I have been surfing around looking for some nice K9 T-shirts. I am wondering if you have any SSDK9 shirts available in XXL? If so, what is the cost with shipping to 48911?

I tried emailing you, but it was returned, because the mailbox is full.

Thanks for any information,

Officer Scott Worden
CRAA DPS #15

please look at our website ,there are new photos and movies. www.phv-debedrijfshond.nl

What a terrific site. What a great job you guys, girls and gorgeous dogs do to keep your country safe. May angels follow you all always.

Hi just popped in to say wonderful site. You are a credit to your mum and she is very proud of you. Thanks for helping to make this world a safer place.

I feel honored to have found this site. Thank you so much for your dedication. These dogs deserve the best and they get it from our wonderful sheriffs department.

We saw the article in the paper today about the attack on Kaleo. We share our lives with a brave, devoted, loving and goofy Belgian Terv. Kaleo's bravery and devotion to his fellow officers do not surprise us. Best wishes for a full recovery for this wonderful K9 officer from our Terv and his family.

I saw the article in today's Sac bee, about the suspect who hit your dog over the head with a shovel. He should be locked up and throw away the key! Anyone who would treat a dog that way would do the same to a human. That's just terrible, how could someone do such a thing? This is worse than animal cruelty. God bless you for the work you do, and for your faithful K-9's.

the penalties for harming a police dog ought to be even MORE severe..in our humble opinion..BRavo k-9 units..you are the best.
