S4, E5: Dogs in Emergency Management Part 1, GCSO K9 Unit
When seconds matter, K9 units bring skills no human can match.
In part one of our Dogs in Emergency Management series, we shine a spotlight on the Greene County Sheriff’s Department K9 Unit. These highly trained dogs and their handlers play a crucial role in search and rescue, public safety, and emergency response. From rigorous training to real-world deployments, discover how K9 teams work alongside first responders to protect and serve our community.
In the following months, we will explore other ways dogs help first responders and the community in all types of emergencies.
