With more than 1,700 calls for support service so far this year, the OPP Canine Unit is dedicated to community safety.
Even with the COVID-19 pandemic affecting training, the OPP Canine Unit duties have not changed says a news release.
The canines provide support for search and rescue, tracking wanted suspects, detecting narcotics, and searching for firearms, explosives, and physical evidence.
The fifth annual OPP Canine Unit Calendar showcases the highly-trained canines that work to keep Ontario safe.
Each month features an OPP Canine from across the province with a write-up identifying their specialty and home location. All proceeds from the 2021 OPP Canine Unit Calendar go to the OPP Youth Foundation and the Friends of The OPP Museum. The charities thank everyone for their generosity as last year's calendar sales raised $25,309.64 for these worthy causes.
Each calendar costs $10 and can be purchased at the OPP Off Duty Shop at oppshop.on.ca.
