Eastern States Working Dog Association "The Eastern States
Working Dog Association" (link provided) is anxious to work
with part-time Officers, Reserve Officers, and Special Deputies in
their K-9 endeavors (includes Nationally Accepted
Certification)." "It's a lot of hard work to get started,
but very satisfying to those who do it."
NY: Seneca Humane
Society/SPCA, Inc. - Be sure to check out this important
web page by Charles L. Goldthwait II, Chief, Humane Law
Enforcement. See how cruelty to animals is directly linked to
crimes against people. Stop an animal abuser, and you might
just save a life of a child or a woman. Chief Goldthwait makes the
case that animal abusers also abuse, or will abuse, members of the
family.

"You CAN make a
difference!"
NRLO is pleased to introduce
Officer Stephen B. Phillips of the
Buffalo Special Police K-9 Training and Consultation.
In an e-mail to NRLO, K-9 Training
Officer Phillips said, "I have started
working with the Buffalo, New York, Special Police Dogs in the areas
of tracking, cadaver detection,
and accelerant detection. The Buffalo Assistant Chief is
Wayne Lombardo; and his dogs are in training.
I had previously
completed the NY State Bureau of Municipal Police Peace Officer
Course. I also have been recently appointed NY State
Coordinator for the Eastern States Working Dog Association;
and they are anxious to work with part-time Officers, Reserve
Officers, and Special Deputies in their K-9 endeavors, including
offering Nationally accepted certification (which many Law
Enforcement K-9 Associations will not do!).
I would like to help
provide information to your group. I would offer this
advice. If you are serious about offering K-9 services
to agenceis in your area, you CAN make a difference.
Tracking Dogs, Cadaver Detection Dogs, Accelerant Detection Dogs and
even Narcotics and Explosives Detection Dogs can be successfully
used by Reserve Officers to supplement the full-time K-9
Units. These dogs can be gotten fully trained, or trained in
programs designed for the Reserve Departments' needs. It's a
lot of hard work to get started, but very satisfying to those who do
it.
