K-9s ‘Beans’ and ‘Fox’ training to go to school

Dogs joining SRO Division as ‘another layer’ of safety

Sgt. Dustin Lanier of the Bulloch County Sheriff's Office K-9 Unit demonstrates the ability of 4-year-old German Shepherd "Beans" to sniff out narcotics during the introduction of two new K-9s on Tuesday, Sept. 9, who will work with school resource officers in Bulloch County's public schools. Lanier said Beans was donated to the Sheriff's Office by a local handler and was exposed to some basic training prior to joining the SRO team. He is tentatively scheduled to be placed at Southeast Bulloch High School on Sept. 29, though he will rotate regularly between all schools in the southern portion of the county. (SCOTT BRYANT/staff)
