Donation Will Help Sheriffs Get New K-9

June 25, 2014

The Grand Traverse Sheriff’s office says that a grant from the Art and Mary Schmuckal Family Foundation will allow the department to purchase a new narcotic detection K-9 to replace the recently lost K-9 Yogi, which had served Grand Traverse County and surrounding areas.

The Art and Mary Schmuckal Famaily Foundation grant will cover the cost of the K-9 as well as all associated training. The narcotics detection K-9 is a multipurpose K-9 also able to search for missing persons, track criminals and provide officer protection.
