Monday, April 22, 2013 at 9:43AM The 3 month effort culminated in a full blown NRP/MSP Mock Search. Our own operational dog Team of Ashley and Jett pariticipated in the excercise and made the find! Wu-Huuuuuuuu to all. (See Pics in the Photo Section :-)
Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 11:39AM CK-9 sent 4 members to Towsen MD to support the Natural Resources Police in their Active Shooter training. We got a super 45 minute brief on what to do if you are in a sitiuation like that. Then we participated with many others as wounded, and/or screaming for help vicitms in an old school building basement for the NRP teams to gain entry and quickly locate and neutralize the shooter......it was great fun for us.........a very stressful environment, but great training for the police (they did fantastic!)
Friday, March 8, 2013 at 2:57PM Jebb, Sabre, Nyja, Starbuck and Bella all were big hits with the kids at the demo. Every kid got to be found by a real search and rescue dog, then got their picture taken with one! Loads of fun for all :-)
