They talked to us about keeping our community safe and what they use the helicopter for like emergency's like robbers or finding someone. Then the dogs came. Police dogs help the officers by smelling where there located or to smell drugs. What surprised me the most I didn't know that the German shepherd police dogs have 42 teeth.
