RE:Request to Retire K-9 Cuda

REQUEST:

I am requesting Council authorize the retirement of K-9 “Cuda” and transfer his ownership to his handler, Corporal Justin Case.



DISCUSSION
:

Corporal Case was recently promoted and his new job responsibilities prevent him from continuing as a K-9 handler. His assigned dog, K-9 “Cuda” is seven years old. Cuda has performed faithfully as a member of the police department’s; however, at his age, it is not practical to retrain him to work with another handler.  

Corporal Case wishes to care for Cuda for the remainder of his life and is asking for the City to transfer ownership to him.



RECOMMENDATION:

It is my recommendation Council retires K-9 Cuda and transfer ownership to Corporal Case. 



BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no direct fiscal impact.
