HCSO K-9 Team Completes Recertification With Florida Law Enforcement Canine Association.

Highlands County Sheriff’s Office K-9 team recently completed its recertification with the Florida Law Enforcement Canine Association! Patrol K-9s Gentry (Deputy Ben Jones) and Drax (Deputy Alex Brock) re-certified in apprehension, recall, obedience, tracking and article searches.

K-9 Goose (Deputy Triston Ragoodial), our single-purpose narcotics detection dog, was re-certified in his specialty, and bloodhounds K-9 Hooch (Deputy Jeff Turner), K-9 Waylon (Deputy Tyler Bumby) and K-9 Hank (Deputy Ryan O’Gara) all were successful in their tracking re-certification.

Special congratulations to our newest team, K-9 Apollo and Deputy Jeremy Ahrens, who completed their first certification!
