K9 Bronco is the latest addition to law enforcement's four-legged force. This 3-year-old German Shepherd is now the youngest K9 to complete an impressive 400 hours of training, ready to take on the streets alongside his partner, Deputy Finch, according to a recent post on the Pierce County Sheriff's Department blog.
With Finch's 17 years of experience in the field, the pair are geared up to tackle a variety of tasks including tracking, building searches, and evidence recovery, as mentioned in the Pierce County Sheriff's Department blog. Their dynamic collaboration has already manifested in unique encounters, one involving the successful location of a naked man hiding within the confines of a garbage can following a chase.
While Deputy Finch and Bronco actively respond to patrol calls, training remains a constant in their routine, ensuring that this K9 is ever-prepared for the unexpected demands of law enforcement work. The duo's strong bond is highlighted outside of duty as well, with Bronco enjoying playtime in the backyard, showcasing that even the most diligent of working dogs need their downtime.
A lesser-known fact about K9 Bronco is his friendship with K9 Coda, another member of the force.
