Border Patrol canines are getting back to work after their training classes were canceled for months.
YUMA, ARIZ. – Border Patrol K-9s are getting back to work after their training classes were canceled for months due to the coronavirus pandemic. Over the last year, as K-9s started to retire, new teams began to dwindle, so agents knew they had to quickly get classes started again.
Typically, Border Patrol handlers would head to the Canine Center in El Paso, Texas, to pick up and train with their new dogs, but all classes were canceled when the pandemic broke out in March and as cases began to spike in the city.
