Commerce City, COLO (KDVR)-The Commerce City Police Department is scheduled to start using the K-9 dogs to help fight crime in June.
The arrival of these dogs will make a big difference in many ways, according to a vice president.
It is called one of the new journal dogs “Netherlands”. The German sponsor mixer/malanois is a year old.
Fox31 managed to see the dog to be trained on Wednesday. Within a few minutes, the Netherlands managed to find bullets and a hidden rifle in the grass and shrubs outside a sports field.
The administration said that the Netherlands was named after the City of Trade City investigator Court Holland, who was killed in a pilot crash while he was in 2020.
Trade City Police officer Gilbert Abdullah is the Netherlands processor and said that the K-9 has an unusual feeling of smell, who said he would make a big difference in crime control and hunt the suspects.
Officer Abdullah said: “It (the dog) protects the officers when we have to locate people or put the danger.
The Netherlands is one of the two K-9s that CCPD recently got.
The administration said it had the K-9 program a decade ago, but it was solved as part of the approval decree.
There are now more than 70,000 people living in the City of Commerce.
The police department said that K-9s is necessary to help deal with population growth and crime rates.
The leadership of the administration said that dogs are necessary for more than mere crime.
“Well, they can help determining the location of the important missing individuals. So, think about an elderly person walking away from a home to care for the elderly or a missing child. They can greatly help in determining the location of this individual in a much faster period of time,” said Vice President Mike Samazers.
Dogs will also be used as ambassadors for the police department and meet in society, so that citizens can get to know both dogs and officers a little better.
CCPD said it hoped to get up to six K-9 units that are patrolling the streets in the next two years.
