Heads up, Devils Lake! Our K9 teams are in town this week for K9 in-service training. They normally train out at Camp Grafton, but a change of plans has them working in and around the Devils Lake area instead.

If you see them out and about, feel free to give them a wave. Just don’t take K9 Beau’s game face too seriously. He’s trying his best.

Please share this post to reach the Devils Lake area and spread the word that these are training exercises only!
