Sheridan County deputy seeks grant-top-up to attend K9 conference in Colorado Springs
Summary
Jesse requested county funds to supplement an existing grant so he can attend a K9 conference June 15–18 in Colorado Springs; commissioners said continuing-education funds exist in administration and discussed logistics for transporting canines.
Jesse, representing agency management, requested county support to supplement grant funds so he and local canine handlers can attend a K9 conference in Colorado Springs June 15–18. Jesse said just over $1,000 remains in the grant but an additional roughly $1,000 would be needed from county funds to cover attendance for local handlers.
Jesse described training and materials available at the conference, including trainers and practical exercises not locally available. Commissioners and staff discussed logistics (the dogs must be transported separately for safety and training-location reasons) and whether the county has administration training funds available; staff confirmed continuing education funds exist to cover trainings.
