Trial PictureWell the Agility equipment is a larger project than we expected. Wyotech handling the metal and two local businesses donating powder coating and sandblasting, and of course LOWE"S donating the "Trex" material. ........Our equipment will be the BEST and will help all the K-9's in our group stay on top of their agility game. Pictures to come.....

Our K-9 Trial Committee is working hard to make sure this is a fun well organized event. The folks on our committee are; Debbie Lugo, Ruth Pagano, Joe Escobar, Kristina Hunter, Martha Griffin, Nick Barreiro, Rich Bentley, Scott McCartney, Dan Gill, Julie Durrington, Veronica Garcia, Jason Fortier, Dawna Rosner, Tim Twardosz (aka Teabiscuit), Tod Sockman, Deanna Stevens, Jerry Watson and Marc Kirkland.

Thank you for all your efforts so far and in advance for the work to be done. Without these folks, I would lose my hair - "Darn, done that !"

Our agility equipment is still being refurbished into first class heavy duty agility equipment at Wyotech.
Using "Trex," reinforcing the steel and powdercoating is not an easy job and we eagerly await the finished project.

PS - Thank you "LOWES" for their contribution !!!!

The K-9 trial Narcotics competition will be held at River City HS, # 1 Raider Lane, West Sacramento on Friday, June 17, 2011 starting at 4pm. The patrol portion of the trial will also be held at River City HS beginning at 8am June 18, 2011.

Our Facebook account changed. We were at "West Sacramento Police K-9 Association" which was a GROUP. We have now changed and are now at "West Sacramento K-9 Association" which is a PAGE.

We are actively seeking donations to help with our K-9 competition on June 17 & 18, 2011. We are a 501 c 3 organization and will provide you documentation for your tax records.

If you can assist us, please email me at rogerk@cityofwestsacramento.org or Debbie Lugo at debbiel@cityofwestsacramento.org

The West Sacramento K-9 unit hosted our annual California POST K-9 Evaluations on Wednesday, January 26, 2011 at Raley Field. The teams certified in indoor and outdoor person searches, obedience, different stages of protection and they showed "Excellent" control of the dogs during all phases. And finally, they certifie...d in narcotic searches. All 24 "LAWDOGS" attended. They were from Sacramento PD, West Sacramento PD, Citrus Heights PD, Vacaville PD, Davis PD and Corning PD. They were certified by Sgt. Charles Husted from Sac PD (Prior K-9 handler) and Lt. Deanna Stevens from WSPD (Prior K-9 handler) Ofc. Dave Stallions & Ofc.
