Kyran
History
K-9 Kyran was initially trained in Holland at the Fourwinds Police Dog Center for about six months before he was purchased by the Southern Pines Police Department. After being flown into the United States, Kyran and his handler trained with the K-9 Unit of the Fayetteville, North Carolina Police Department.
Kyran and his handler have been trained in all areas of narcotics to include cocaine, marijuana, methamphetamine, MDMA (ecstasy), and heroin and are certified in these areas of narcotics with the North American Police Work Dog Association (NAPWDA).
Kyran is also trained and certified in tracking / trailing, agility, article searches, and obedience. K-9 Kyran retired in August of 2012 just after discovering he had bone cancer in his leg. Kyran was adopted by Sergeant Williams and is now enjoying retirement.
K-9 Kyran had a very successful career at the Police Department and will be missed.
