EPD Has New K-9 Trained to Detect Narcotics, Firearms, and Ammunition
Press release from the Eureka Police Department:
The Eureka Police Department is pleased to introduce K9 Bodhi, a two-year-old Labrador Retriever. Bodhi is trained to detect narcotics (heroin, methamphetamine, and cocaine) firearms, and ammunition.
Bodhi is assigned to the multi-agency Humboldt County Drug Task Force (HCDTF) to combat sales, manufacturing, and distribution of illegal drugs in Humboldt County.
Bodhi’s handler is a Eureka Police Officer currently assigned as a Special Agent with the HCDTF.
Bodhi and his handler will be reassigned to the Eureka Police Department once their HCDTF rotation has ended.
Bodhi has already had a successful deployment with the HCDTF, alerting to 6 pounds of heroin during an investigation on July 13, 2020. The Eureka Police Department is proud of their participation and partnership with the HCDTF and anticipates many more successful deployments for Bodhi.

Great. Now man’s best fiend is going to be finding you’re stash and turning you in. What a traitor. And how is he going to testify in court. The 8th amendment gives me the right to face you’re accusor. Another step in the government taking away you’re right.
“sonnyb” : That’s got to be the goofiest pile of fluff I’ve read in awhile.
Officer Bohdi: Welcome to the force, young man.
The K9 is a great tool to find drugs. Unfortunately, they can have as may dogs as they want and it won’t do any good at all if those who are actually trafficking the drugs are sighted and released. Instead, they are just putting the dog at risk. Maybe law enforcement management needs to use their brains just like the dogs are using their noses.
He looks like a good boy. I hope he has a safe and busy career.
Training your dog to find drugs is a great idea because drugs are really easy to lose.
What is his new Nick name sight and release them 😂😂🤣
Welcome K9 Bodhi. I pray that you and your handler will be safe out on the streets. Take a big bite out of crime for me.
You mean trained to mark when the officer says so? Dogs have been proven time and and again to be a tool of the gestapo but their efficiancy is negligible. What abuse.
Swine, our police officers are not gestapo. The police K9s get the best of care and training, and they normally live with their handler and his or her family. Not what I would call an abused life by any means.
Cats would never divulge your stash….
