Criminals Cringe When Jesse is Around
On Jesse's 1st shift as a real police dog, we were dispatched to a call stating that a vehicle had been broken into. When an officer arrived on scene, the suspect ran into the neighborhood and hid. I commanded Jesse to search and he found the suspect hiding under a U-haul truck. Good Boy! Jesse barked at him intently reminding the suspect not to do anything foolish.
Jesse is a Multi-Tasking K-9 Deputy Dog
Jesse has had many notable apprehensions since then of fleeing felons, car thieves, and burglars. In addition to the patrol work, Jesse recently certified as a drug sniffing K-9.
Jesse Will Sniff Out Any Stash!
Jesse's 1st drug find was a stash of marijuana hidden under a garbage can at a local high school. The stash would have certainly gone unnoticed if Jesse hadn't been there to find it. It was also the 1st drug find of a new program developed in a local school district inviting drug sniffing k9's on campus in an effort to prevent drugs from coming into our schools.
