We’re wrapping up an amazing weekend by celebrating the Dads in our K9 family!

As you know our team is 100% volunteer, but these volunteers are also full-time Firefighters, Nurses and Medics. This means shift schedules and days away from their families at a time, on top of the constant needs of keeping up with a working K-9.

The sacrifices the men on our team make doesn’t go unnoticed! Whether your one of our handlers giving up time and energy, a husband controlling the chaos so we can train, or a Father in our lives supporting our crazy dreams.

Thank you for being amazing role models and pillars to our success.

Happy Father’s Day!!!

A HUGE Congratulations to three of our K-9’s and their handlers on becoming certified through the American Working Dogs Association. Each K-9 and handler tested for nearly 2 hours in 90 degree heat on their own time.

Though these K-9’s have proven themselves on multiple occasions, becoming certified is a necessity in our line of work. Much like providing a license to prove you’ve been certified to drive.

We don’t hang our hats on these certifications alone. We strive to build bonds between K-9s and handlers that will provide the most accurate service possible. Everything we do is to serve you.

Did you know all of our members are volunteers? Every second they spend with their K-9 is off the clock. This includes trainings, obidenence, deployments, meetings, testings…all on their own time. This also means time away from our spouses and kids. We would not be who we are today without the support of our families! So today, we want to give a shout out to our team mommas!

We have our mommas that spend time away from their kiddos as active team members and we have our mommas who hold down the fort so we can provide top notch service!

MRC K-9 operates as a family, we wouldn’t be who we are without each other.

Happy Mother’s Day from MRC K-9!

New year, new fresh uniforms!!

CP (coach potato) Shadow was less than amused but thinks the new swag is pretty comfy!

Thank you Wyked Printz for all the hard work in making sure our handlers get covered in dog fur and mud in style.

The team is excited for all the opportunities to come!

We always enjoy training, but the cooler temps definitely make it much more enjoyable. 😎

Today was a smaller training with a few off-duty members but they made the most out of a public space and a couple of hours! The newer pups were adorably clumsy but efficient and our veteran members provided great mentorship to our newer members as always.

Today we remember the lives lost on 9/11. This was the greatest loss of life for emergency responders in a single event. But let’s not forget that this was also the greatest rescue mission in a single incident. Many of those rescues wouldn’t have been possible without the brave K-9’s involved.
