Barks and Badges is happening this Saturday! We wish to thank KTVN Channel 2 and Andi Cassinari for this great story on Someone to Know! Check out this video on their website.
We hope to see you on Saturday! Remember it’s FREE! Bring the family, but please leave your pets at home.
This year’s Barks and Badges is coming up in just five more days on Saturday, May 14th! The weather forecast looks good for the day, so it will be a great day to come out to see the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office K9s, their handles, and all the other great First Responders who will be at our event. We’ll also have games for the kids, vendors and exhibitors to visit and of course, great demos from the K9s!
K9 Partners will be at the booth and we have new T-shirts in all sizes from little kidlets to big adults. Take a peak at the new colors! These shirts will not be sold online, only at our events. So come see us!
See a list of our vendors/exhibitors here.
Yesterday, Eric Herzberg at Country Financial Insurance presented K9 Partners with a check to help provide needed equipment for our Washoe County K9s. Two of our dog teams came out the receive the check along with K9 Partners President Patricia Kelly.
Here’s another little video from the team. Happy Easter, everyone!

Happy Easter!
Happy 9th Birthday to our handsome Kyago!! Hope you get lots of treats and tummy rubs today, sweet boy!!
It was a happy/sad day as K9 Titus retired from the Washoe County K9 Unit after over six years. His handler Deputy Nemeth recently promoted to Sergeant. Titus will now enjoy life as a loved pet, but he leaves a big hole in the K9 Team. He has garnered many awards while serving Washoe County, being honored as one of the top dogs in the country. Congratulations to Sgt, Nemeth and happy retirement to Titus. We will miss you.
Guess who turns 4 today… 
Our third and final K9 Birthday for the month of January is Jett! When he’s not fighting bad guys and keeping our community safe, Jett loves to go to the park and play with his ball.
We all wish him an awesome birthday!
Our friends at KOLO covered the introduction of our two new K9s at the Sheriff’s Office yesterday. Here’s a link to the great article on their website. Thank you so much, Noah Bond and KOLO! https://www.kolotv.com/2022/01/20/washoe-county-sheriffs-office-debuts-two-new-police-dogs/
