My wife Dawn and I join forces and chat with Paul Ludwig of Iron Dog K9 about the near fatal call one night where his K9 partner failed on a suspect apprehension and his entire world turned upside down in seconds.

We also chat about issues we observe currently in the K9 industry that are leaving departments and their teams in very vulnerable positions regarding the reliable sourcing and performance of these teams responsible for the safety of their communities.
