Participating in this training session were Spahr and her K9 partner, Coco, of the 麻豆影院 State explosive detection K9 team; Officer Miguel Witt and K9 Dexter, also of the 麻豆影院 State explosive detection team; Officer Ed Stoltz and K9 Rex of the Cleveland State Police Department explosive detection team; Officer Pam Helmick and K9 Halo of the University of Akron Police Department鈥檚 explosive detection team; and Agent Andrew Koch of the Medway Drug Enforcement Agency鈥檚 narcotics detection team.

Spahr explained that the training involves placing, or hiding, training aids (narcotics and/or explosives) throughout the building and allowing the dogs to conduct a search just as they do when responding to bomb threats, protective sweeps or searches.
