Donate

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department K9s are leaders in our city. They are local heroes, fiercely loyal, and have dedicated their lives to making our community safe with your support.

About Us

Currently, the LVMPD K-9 Detail has 14 officers, including 3 sergeants, and 17 Patrol Dogs, trained to locate human scent. These dogs search for suspects, lost victims, and evidence that suspects may have discarded.

Meet the K9 Unit

We use hunting breeds such as Springer Spaniels and Labrador Retrievers because of their high hunt and play drives. We have six Explosive Detector Dogs used to locate many various types of explosives.

K9 Trials

Each phase of the Trial is its own �mini� competition. Awards are given for the top five finishers in Narcotics, Bombs, Area Search, Building Search, Obedience, Agility and handler Protection.
