McLean County Emergency Management K9 Training
On September 12th, the McLean County Emergency Management Agency K9 Operations Team, and the Hudson, IL Volunteer Firefighter Dive Team put on a training exercise for Corn Belt Kennel Club and Town and County Kennel Club.This event was held at Lake Evergreen, in Hudson, Illinois.
Over 50 people came out and watched the K9 Team (K9 Buzz, K9 Jessie, and K9 Pona) locate the divers in the water. Applause and cheers came with each successful location. We were able to watch experienced and novice dogs jumping from the boats, to where their noses located the diver’s scent.
This was a great opportunity to observe the K9 Team in action!
