Hawkins Co.Sheriff's Department gets new police dog
Last February, the Hawkins County Sheriff's Department lost its drug-sniffing dog, Rocco because of a sudden illness.
Wednesday the sheriff's department got a new addition to their team Eragon, a belgian malinos who is trained to find narcotics.
Food City and KVAT Foods raised money and donated the canine to Hawkins County. Eragon will be a big help to the sheriff's department.
"It's an excellent asset for our war on drugs. When I took office in September, we declared war on drugs in Hawkins County, and we lost our other dog. Food City stepped up to the plate and bought us this dog, so it's an excellent tool for us. It's just like having 2 or 3 other officers when you have a good K9 officer in your unit," said Ronnie Lawson with the Hawkins County Sheriff's Department.
Eragon has already completed his certification in the state of Tennessee. He has been passively trained, meaning when he finds drugs he will just sit down.
