Raider, a 40-pound narcotics detection dog, does more than just help catch bad guys; she brings happiness and comfort to her handler every day-her daddy. They have a special bond that’s full of love and fun, making their serious job a little lighter.
Playful Moments
Each day starts with Raider kissing her handler. “Raider, can I have a kiss?” her handler asks, and Raider happily responds with kisses. This sweet routine shows how much they care for each other. “Oh, I love you,” her handler says, expressing his deep affection for Raider.
Their day is filled with playful moments, like racing up the stairs. Raider loves to dash ahead, always winning these little competitions. “Oh crap, she always wins,” her handler laughs, enjoying the challenge and Raider’s joyful spirit.
At work, Raider is a pro. Besides being cute, she has a “really good nose” for detecting drugs. But what’s equally important is how she gets along with other dogs at work, like Mattis, a much larger police dog. When Raider and Mattis meet, their tails wag “going 100 mph,” showing their friendly nature even though they are serious working dogs.
Tough Times
Raider’s presence is especially valuable during tough times. After seeing something sad, her handler finds comfort in Raider’s companionship. “These kisses make everything better,” he says, appreciating how Raider’s affection helps him cope with the challenges of their job.
Raider’s story isn’t just about the tasks she performs; it’s about the emotional support she provides. She’s not just a dog at work; she’s a loving friend who makes everything about the job better. Her handler sums it up best: “It really makes this job especially in the climate so much better to be able to have my best friend with me at work.”
In the world of policing, Raider stands out not just for her skills but for her ability to bring joy and emotional support to those around her.
