K-9 Unit
Program History
The South Boston Police Department K-9 Program was started in 1999, and has continued on and off for approximately 21 years. Through the history of our program we have had a mix of drug detection and tracking canines with dual purpose dogs at times. This program has also been a great asset to community policing as the agency has routinely provided K-9's for demonstrations at community events. This program is headed by the lieutenant over the Patrol Division. For a personnel directory, click here.
