Cold Spring Police K9 Team Places 5th in National Skills
Cold Spring's K9 Unit Duncan and his sidekick Officer Darrell Burris showed off their skills last week when they took 5th place in the US Police K9 Association (USPCA) National Detector Trials held in Cloquet, Minnesota.
Duncan and Darrell, familiar faces around the village, were one of 98 teams of dogs and handlers competing at the competition, which included narcotics, explosives, and cadaver detection specialists. Duncan placed 5th in the narcotics detection section.
The trip to Minnesota was fully funded by the USPCA Region 7 after Duncan and Darrell placed second in the regional competition held in November.
Duncan has been on the beat for over a year and a half and has numerous successful investigations under his collar.
If you see Duncan on the street, don't forget to give him a pat on the back.
