Deputy Michael Marston, Jr. & partner Kilo.
Kilo came from the former Czechoslovakia.
Kilo's commands are in Czech. It keeps with the tradition of the country from which the dog was imported & it allows for no person but Michael to give commands to Kilo.
Kilo is 4 years old, & is trained to find & interdict the exchange of illegal narcotics, track & apprehend suspects, & strengthen public relations with the community.
Michael & Kilo travel to local schools giving demonstations of his ability as a police dog.
The Montezuma County Sherriff's Department spent $6,500 to obtain Kilo. It may sound like a lot of money for a dog, but consider the work that these dogs do.
They track burglery suspects, handle building searches & find murder suspects in a matter of minutes. They protect YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!! They are a VITAL part of the department.
Upkeep of a K-9 is very expensive.
It includes vet checkups, food & training.
Consider making a donation to your local law enforcement agency.
If you'd like to make a donation for the upkeep of Kilo, send your donation to:
Montezuma County Sherriff's Department
601 N. Mildred Road
Cortez, CO 81321
Please make checks payable to:
Montezuma County Safety and Protection Foundation.
Thank you!
The bond between K-9 & handler can become so strong that the dog will risk its own safety to protect his human partner.
