handlers are selected
through a competitive
process; human candidates
must have at least five years’
experience as a police officer.
Once chosen, the dog and
handler attend a six-week basic
handler’s school. Once the team
returns to service in Clackamas
County, they spend their time
training, responding to calls,
searching for suspects and
helping out our Patrol division
and outside agencies with calls
for service.
