Law enforcement K9 unit expansions

Overview

Police departments in Hartselle and Pensacola have introduced new K9 officers to their respective forces.

In Hartselle, Officer Tyler Boyer established the department’s first K9 unit in approximately 15 years. The initiative was funded through city council resources and a local crowdfunding campaign.

In Pensacola, the department introduced K9 Redden, a Belgian Malinois rescued from a neglect situation by the Emerald Shores Humane Society. Following specialized training, Redden is now dual-certified in detection and apprehension and has been partnered with Officer Michael Potts in the Patrol Division.
