The 400-Hour Bond: Inside the Training of Columbia's K-9 Officers

This week, we were honored to host a very special guest from the Columbia Police Department (CPD) K-9 Unit: Lance Corporal Rares Ungureanu and his K9 partner, a three-and-a-half-year-old German Shepherd named Hutch. Their conversation offered a rare glimpse into the intense training, deep bond, and critical work that Columbia’s police dogs perform every day.
