K-9 Blue & Handler Mollie
​
Blue was an 11 year old German Shepherd, National certified tracking dog with North American Police Working Dog Association. Blue loved to find people, be in the woods and lives to swim.
We recently lost him to cancer, but his dedication and talent pathed the way for future handlers and K-9 within CCSSAR. Blue will be missed. Thank you for your service!
