We sat down with an old  mutual friend and talked about a myriad of K9 related subjects. We discussed k9 tryouts, the vetting process, hairy deployments, the cyclical nature of things, as well as Eddie's K9 attic deployment system. You will be able to hear how passionate Eddie is about the device he developed and how it can save lives. First In K9 may ring a bell from k9 conferences such as Hits and Hold the Line K9 conference. Eddie currently works with all the K9 teams going through Vohne Licke's handler courses. 

Eddie Wescott is a veteran police officer, with over 34 years of service, including 18 years as a K9 handler and trainer. He retired from the Louisville Metro Police Department where he served as a K9 handler and SWAT officer.  He currently serves as a patrol officer with the Jeffersontown Police Department.
