(Green Lake County) A new K9 is being trained to take over the opening in the Green Lake County Sheriff’s Office created by the retirement of K9 Tess last month.
Tess was with the Department roughly nine years. K9 Kai came on board last fall.
Chief Deputy Matt Vande Kolk says the dogs are a vital tool in detecting drugs during traffic stops and the execution of search warrants and can be a crime deterrent.
Their newest K9 Ash will be teamed with Deputy Meyer but the two are currently going through the training they need before they can hit the streets. K9’s Kai and Ash are German Shepherds.
The Department’s third K9 is Roky, a Yellow Lab.
