❤️🐾 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 ❤️🐾

My German Shepherd girl Maggie Mae is amazing. She is so smart, very athletic and extremely dedicated to protection of both me and our property. Only a 7 month old puppy, yet she dedicates her attention and energy to taking care of me and our household. I am so blessed with this amazing canine heroine.

😻 Awww Brandy it's wonderful to watch
little Maggie May grow up.
She is a BEAUTY
& she has a GREAT mommy who takes
AMAZING care of her.

I know that because she is SPARKLING.
Her coat is SHINING
so you feed her a GREAT diet.
She FEELS so happy & peaceful & alert.
I wouldn't expect anything less from you, my friend,
but it's wonderful to see your kindness & caring
reflected in your pup ❤️🐾🩵

We take care of each other. We are a team. It often seems as though she is trying to talk to me. She makes noises almost like words. Wish I knew what she is saying but I just answer her back. It's good to know that she's got my back.
