K9 Spotlight: Glen Pacyna & Diesel

Glen Pacyna & Diesel
Police Officer/K9 Handler

I have been certified with my K9 partner, Diesel, for two years now. Together, we have successfully tracked and located missing persons and suspects. We have even assisted in tracking and locating items from a bank robbery in our jurisdiction. We have also removed several pounds of illegal narcotics from the street. Diesel has been credited with successful surrenders from armed, dangerous subjects, ensuring officer safety. In this short time, we have accomplished so much together — more than I had imagined, actually. What once started as a dream has become a reality that has exceeded even my own expectations. As we continue forward with our career, I hope one day he will lead me to become a K9 trainer and ultimately lead me to another K9 partner upon Diesel's retirement.

Their Gear: Some of Diesel's favorite gear consists of the black Kong on a rope, as well as the 2.5-inch Ray Allen ball on a rope. My favorite product from Ray Allen would have to be the 44 oz. Buddy Bowl, which is perfect for my patrol car! Not a drop of water has spilled!
