Sergeant Damian Davis and K-9 Dexter

Sergeant Davis and Dexter work as a team to provide specialized services to the Orange Village Police Department. Dexter is a utility/narcotics dog trained in tracking, open area and building searches, officer protection, criminal apprehension, and drug searches. Constant work on obedience, agility and Dexter's searching capabilities keep him proficient in all areas. Combined training is done with other local police K-9 units within Northeast Ohio on a regular basis. K-9 Dexter is very valuable to the police K-9 team because his sense of hearing is superior to his human partner; and his sense of smell is hundreds of times more sensitive. K-9 Dexter can perform a variety of tasks, including finding lost children, apprehending dangerous criminals, and locating drug-tainted money and concealed narcotics.
