K9 Unit Justificatflonr Utilization of properlytrainedpoliceservice a costeffeetive and dogsrepnesents reliable assetin Law Enforcement. By employing the K9s acute senseof smell and hearing, officers can gain a tactical edge over the violator or suspect on the street. The K9 also provides a psyehological deterrent by its mere presence at the sceneof a potential conflict or disturbance, providing officers with one of the finest non-lethal aids in the pr,eventionand detection of crime.

MonetaryBenefits Utilizing current drug forfeiture laws, a K9 has the potential of paying for itself in a relatively short period of time. Through money and assetseizures,and effectiveK9 unit can possibly fund and entire Deparhnent! Even if the citizens of a community believe there are no narcotics within their city limits, there are drugs running through that community on its wpy to another destination. rWhy give up a drug or assetseizureto a community down the road that employsa K9 unit? Missed seizures equalslost money.

Usesand Advantages -

Narcotics Detection Officer Protection Building searches Criminal apprehension,and Felony'Warrant Service Tracking lost persons

CaseLaw Courts have consistently upheld that olfactory inspection h'y a K9, trained in detection,doesnot constifute a search,under the definition of the fourth Amendment. Many decisionshave statedthat there can be no reasonable expectationoiiprivacy in open air. Numerous caselaw decisionshave upheld that olfactony inspection of a vehicle during a routine traffic stop for minor driving infractions is allowable, allowing use of the K9 with out articulable reasonablesuspicion. The courts are quit lenient with the use of K9s, especiallywhen the reasonable suspicionfor detention is exhibited and explained before the use of the K9.In circumstanceswhen reasonable suspicion is somewhat vague, it will generally endure the conjunction with K9 use, so long as the officers are acting in a diligent, professional rnanner.
