I've been a police officer since 1992 and began working for the Madison Police Department in 1998. I have always had an interest in Canine training and once MPD started the canine unit I immediately applied. I was teamed up with my canine partner Johnny in January 2005. Johnny is a Belgian Malinois who was just under two years old when we were partnered. He was purchased and trained through Northern Michigan K-9 and was originally imported from the Netherlands. Johnny and I graduated from Northern Michigan K-9 training center in February 2005 and have successfully worked the streets of Madison ever since.
