ENCLOSURES:
It is respectfully recommended that a Resolution be passed for
the purchase of four (4) purebred German Shepherd dogs, at an
estimated cost of $14,000. Funding is to be from the Law
Enforcement Trust Fund.
laammej••
The Miami Police Department will train these purebred dogs for
use in the canine program. These dogs are bred specifically for
Military and Police work. They come from a known background with
traceable ancestry. We have had the opportunity to train both
Purebred German Shepherds purchased from Germany and dogs donated
for police work. The dogs purchased from Germany have excelled
in all phases of training and have had a higher success rate
compared to dogs received from donations. The purchased dogs
have a superior dual temperment which is a primary consideration
for selecting dogs for our highly successful narcotic and
explosive detection program.
It is, therefore, recommended that the Resolution authorizing the
purchase of four (4) purebred German Shepherd dogs at an
estimated cost of $14,000, funding to be from the Law Enforcement
Trust Fund, Project No. 690001, Index Code 290904-996, be
approved.
