The
K-9 unit was added to the Department in 1999. The unit
consists of five dogs and their handlers, with each
handler/dog having different responsibilities. These
dogs are used to track suspects, find missing persons
and evidence and detect narcotics and potential life
threatening devices that may be hidden from the site
of the Officers. The keen detection ability of these
well-trained dogs helps protect emergency personnel
and the citizens of Plantation. These dogs and their
handlers make the Officers of the department safer as
they perform their duties.
