ESD K9 Spike

Pennsylvania ESD K9’s making a difference 🐾💙‼️

Our Rescue has sponsored and provided 162 Electronic Storage Detection (ESD) K9s to law enforcement agencies across the U.S., Canada, and around the world. In Pennsylvania alone, eight ESD K9s are working alongside law enforcement.

Meet Mac, Tango, and Doug, three Pennsylvania ESD K9s helping investigators uncover hidden electronic storage devices that may otherwise be missed.

🐾 Mac has located devices containing CSAM evidence during searches in Bucks and Montgomery Counties.

🐾 Tango has been deployed in 17 CSAM-related searches in 2026, locating laptops, hard drives, USB drives, SD cards, and other devices, including phones concealed inside a container of diaper wipes.

🐾 K9 Detective Doug has helped uncover electronic evidence central to several investigations and prosecutions.

These highly specialized K9s don't just find evidence. They're also trained therapy dogs, providing comfort and stability to child victims and investigators working through difficult cases.

Then, a Labrador retriever enters the room, pauses near a wall, and alerts on a digital storage device hidden where no invest...

This is what it is all about….

Recently, I sent a very special little girl named Charlotte in Tennessee a pawagraphed copy of Detective Spike, her very own Spike plushy, and one of Spike’s trading cards. 🐕‍🦺📖

This morning, I received a message from Charlotte’s family that absolutely melted our hearts. ❤️

When Charlotte saw Spike’s picture, she ran to her mom and excitedly said:

“Mommy, this dog Spike is a police officer!” 🥹
And then came a message straight from Charlotte’s heart:

“Thank you, Spike. I really love you. Thank you for the book and the stuffy. Your dog looks like my dog, Lacy, and I love you, Spike!” ❤️

Charlotte, I hope you know that Spike loves you right back! 🐾💙

Sometimes we get so focused on Spike’s work helping law enforcement and protecting children that we forget just how special these little moments can be.

Thank you, Charlotte, for making my day. Keep smiling, keep being kind, and always remember you have a police K9 friend named Spike here in Pennsylvania! 🐕‍🦺💙🐾 Our Rescue Courtdale Police Department

AI has made it possible for someone to take an innocent photo of your face from social media and create a fake sexual image by placing your face onto someone else’s body. Criminals can then threaten to share the fake image unless you send them money, additional photos, or other content.

⚠️ Protect Yourself:
• Keep social media accounts private.
• Be careful who you accept as a friend or follower.
• Limit publicly available photos of yourself.
• Never send money or additional images if threatened.
• Do not delete the messages save the evidence.
• Block and report the account.
• Tell a trusted adult or law enforcement immediately.

Most importantly: A fake AI image is still sextortion. Don't let embarrassment or fear keep you from asking for help.

Parents talk to your kids about this before it happens.

Stay safe online, my friends! 💙🐾

🐾💙 Remembering Connor Vest 💙🐾

Many years ago, I had the privilege of meeting Connor Vest while visiting his classroom. It was one of the many special moments I’ve shared with students throughout our community, and today, that memory carries an even deeper meaning.

My prayers, love, and deepest thoughts go out to Connor’s family, friends, classmates, teachers, and everyone whose life he touched following his heartbreaking passing at just 15 years old. 🙏💙

There are simply no words for a loss like this. May our entire community surround Connor’s loved ones with love, prayer, strength, and support in the difficult days ahead.

Connor’s family is also facing the unexpected financial burden that comes with such an unimaginable tragedy. If you are able, please consider visiting their GoFundMe (listed at the bottom of the post) and making a donation to help support Connor’s family during this incredibly difficult time. Every donation, no matter the amount, can help ease some of the burden and allow his family to focus on one another.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing the GoFundMe and continuing to keep Connor’s family and friends in your prayers. 🙏

In times of unimaginable heartbreak, we stand together, we support one another, and we remind each other that no family has to grieve alone.

Rest peacefully, Connor. You will always be remembered. 🕊️

I Rise Up because every child deserves to live free from exploitation.

After more than three decades in law enforcement, I’ve seen firsthand the devastating impact that human trafficking and child sexual exploitation have on victims, their families, and entire communities. That’s why I continue this mission with Our Rescue.

I rise up for the children who don’t have a voice. I rise up for the survivors who deserve justice, healing, and hope. And I rise up alongside the dedicated investigators, prosecutors, and K9 teams who work tirelessly to hold offenders accountable.

Our Rescue’s Electronic Storage Detection (ESD) K9s are changing investigations across North America. These incredible dogs locate hidden electronic devices that often contain critical digital evidence—evidence that can identify victims, expose offenders, and help rescue children from ongoing exploitation. What might otherwise remain hidden can become the key to protecting a child and securing justice.

On World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, I stand with every partner committed to ending exploitation. Together, we will continue to rise up, support those on the front lines, and fight for a future where every child is safe, protected, and free.

I Rise Up because one rescued child is one too many to stop fighting for. Rise up with me 🐾💙. https://ourrescue.org/riseup

Human trafficking does not always look the way we expect.
