K9 Joker
Grand Junction Police Department (Colorado)
Joker was an amazingly well rounded police K9. During his career with the Grand Junction Police Department he was trained and certified in patrol, tracking, and narcotics. Joker excelled in each of these areas, plus loved being petted by people. Whether it was searching for drugs, bad guys, or doing demos for kids he put his heart into it.
From 2011-2017 Joker helped take a lot of drugs and bad guys off the street making Mesa County safer. His most notable case was tracking down the killer of MCSO Deputy Geer.
Joker was as sweet as he was tough, not to mention oh so fluffy.
