The West Tennessee Drug Task Force would like to officially welcome our newest officer, K9 Special Agent Max!

A full blooded Belgian Malinois, Max was born on June 4, 2021 and is celebrating his 5th birthday TODAY while also starting his new job.

Max will be assigned to the VCIF team in the 29th District of Dyer and Lake Counties. 

Max’s qualifications include but are not limited to:

- Expert vehicle inspections (especially if toys are involved)
- Advanced odor detection capabilities
- Unlimited energy
- Zero respect for personal space
- Willingness to work for toys and belly rubs.

When asked why he wanted to find drugs for the task force in exchange for toys and belly rubs, Max responded, “Woof.” He certainly said a mouthful there. Our Director is still reviewing that statement but he was heard growling from his office shortly after. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Please join us in welcoming K9 Special Agent, Max to the Drug Task Force team and wish him a happy birthday. We look forward to his service, dedication, and occasional supervision and judgement of his handler from the back seat.

Happy 5th Birthday, Max, and welcome to the West Tennessee Drug Task Force! 🎉🐕🚔🐾
