❤️🐾 Happy Valentine’s Day from the U.S. Marshals Service
& their special highly trained K9s 🇺🇸

Since 2001, the USMS has had a K9 Dept.
focused on explosives & firearms detection.

In 2016 Tactical K9 ops was established. The teams are
highly trained Malinois K9s & a Deputy USM handler.

TK9s have a camera system that provides investigators
the ability to see what the K9 is seeing remotely.

TK9s are used primarily as a search tool:
To identify the presence of a suspect in an un-cleared room.
To walk the perimeter & alert whether suspects are escaping.
To track fugitives in both urban & rural environments.

Explosive Detection K9s can detect over 19,000 types of explosives.

🐾 On any given day, 70,000+ K9s are working in the USA
in Law Enforcement:
Police, Border Patrol, Defense/Military, Homeland Security,
DEA, U.S. Marshals, Fire Depts., etc.

The most common breeds are German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois
& Bloodhounds ❤️🐾
