Faithful Partner

On the heels of Chucky passing away, I found this video about military dogs retiring. I thought it was appropriate.

Idaho Falls K-9 Officer Passes Away

Posted: July 30, 2008 05:18 PM

One K-9 officer who served the
city of Idaho Falls
for three years passed away Wednesday due to sudden terminal cancer.

Chuckie was a four and a half
year old Belgian Malinois and was trained, handled and lived with Officer Pat
McKenna.

Chuckie was trained in explosives
detection and in the apprehension of barricaded and fleeing suspects.

Chuckie's animal doctor believes
he was suffering from some form of cancer.

He was cleared of service by an
emergency dispatcher who announced that Chuckie was 10-42. That's police code
for ending his tour of duty.

Hiese Hot Springs K9 Training

Well we had so much fun doing the water deploy, we decided to do it
again, and try to include those that didn't make it to the last one.
This one was on the river, and things went pretty well. See video above

K9 Training

I just spent a week in Pocatello for a K9 seminar. It was a good time. There were probably 60 or so K9 teams there. We did a lot of good training, and i made two new videos. Please check them out. I have not had time to edit them, and fix them up yet, and I have more that I want to add so I will be doing that later.

This is coming to America

 


This should serve as a warning to all freedom loving Americans. Before
pulling the lever this coming November, remember: both Hillary and
Obama support draconian gun laws aimed not at criminals (because
criminals don't obey the laws anyway), but at law abiding citizens.

Now here's a test on who really loves you........

Now here's a test on who
really loves you........

You come home grab the wife by the scruff of the neck, grab the dog by the
scruff of his neck and drag them into the garage...........Open the trunk of
the car and bung them both in, expect a little resistance from both of them
but, slam the trunk lid down.
Go inside and watch TV or whatever for about four hours then return to car in
the garage.....open the trunk lid.....who's glad to see you?........

Shocking

This is truly amazing. I can't believe no one goes to help him.

Ok so it's been a while, one of my friends told me that i needed to update this because his wife mentioned it was very outdated., I didn't think anyone ever really even looked on here anymore.

Well i feel stupid enough without sharing this with the world, but take this as a cautionary tale, dogs are faster than humans. .. I was standing outside the Sheriff's office talking to some fellow officers, and we were kicking the toy for Jenny (my K9). Anyway one of the guys says, "I will give you a quarter if you can take that toy out of her mouth" well I have done this many times, you just have to be quick, and catch her off guard so (like an idiot) I decide to try. Well my first warning is that she is very intense, and keeps a hold of the toy very tight every time i get close. ... I don't pay attention. so I give it a shot, and I slap the ball out of her mouth, only she snaps her jaws shut very quickly, and very forcefully, right on my trigger finger. Of course I jerk away, only causing more damage. Well she bit down hard enough that it not only cuts my finger it actually splits it open from the pressure. I of course feel really stupid, and tell everyone that I'm fine, and the hurry home to inspect the damage.
I will be fine, but i sure hope i don't get into any gun fights anytime soon, I have a large bandage on my index finger, and it feels like I smashed it with a really big hammer.
Not only that it's very hard to type without your index finger. It's a reminder on how sharp these dogs teeth really can be.
