K-9 Unit

Our K-9's are an enhanced support group currently comprised of four officers and their canine partners.

The officers participate in training sessions once a week and attend advanced training when possible.

Primary Functions

  • Respond to alarm and prowler calls
  • Conduct building and article searches
  • Assist drug units with narcotic detection
  • Track felony suspects

Duties

When K-9 officers are not responding to calls, they patrol the business and residential areas of Daytona Beach to deter and detect break-ins. 

The K-9 Unit also gets frequent requests to perform demonstrations at schools and community functions.
