The first individual I will be writing my reflection on is K-9 Officer Justin Scalzo. Officer Justin Scalzo is a member of the Jeanette Police Department, along with his partner and companion Wando. Wando is a German Shepard dog that is born and trained over in Germany until he is able to be handled by other officers. He is then delivered to the United States to be matched with a K-9 officer. Other types of dogs used in K-9 work are Black labs, which are specifically used for more narcotics and bomb detection. Also used in K-9 work are Rottweilers and Dobermans. There are usually three classifications for K-9 dogs. The classifications of dogs are patrol or attack dogs, Narcotics dogs, or tracking dogs. The key to the dog success in the field is their training. Officer Scalzo will record eight hundred hours of training in a single year alone. He will also have to learn to speak specific commands in a German tongue, because the dogs are trained in the German language and not in English. The key to having your dog listen to you in the field of duty is all of the training you and your partner endure and also the K-9 and handler has to have voice recognition between them. So when in the field your dog is not pursuing a suspect and then stops when the suspect says “stop”, instead of you commanding the dog.
I think it would be an incredible experience to have not only a partner on the job, but also a companion in the home. Because when you become a K-9 officer, you have the responsibility of not only controlling your dog in the field, but also when you go home to sleep. So does the dog, because he is apart of your family now and forever, even when the dog eventually retires usually after eight to ten years of duty and will be a part of the family at that time.
To reflect on another experience of class which was informing, was when Karen Slater came and talk to us about the “Juvenile Justice System” and her involvement in it. Karen Slater is...
