DID SOMEONE SAY K-9 & COOKIES?! 🍪🐾

One of our favorite four-legged deputies, K-9 Maverick, was showing off his charm today at Riverside Christian School! 🐕💙

Maverick and his K-9 Handler SRO Davidson spent some time visiting with students, sharing smiles, getting lots of love, and making a few new best friends along the way! 🐾

We’re pretty sure Maverick thinks this should be part of his everyday assignment… especially if it involves treats, belly rubs, and lots of attention! 🐾

A BIG thank you to Riverside Christian School for welcoming our team! We love getting out in our community and building friendships with our future leaders!

As Sheriff, I am proud of the men and women who understand that wearing the badge means more than enforcing the law. It means having a heart for those who cannot help themselves.

Recently, a special little feathered friend needed a helping hand, and our deputies didn’t hesitate to step up!

I want to personally thank Deputy Helton, Deputy Beach, and FWC Officer Reith for going above and beyond to give this little guy a fighting chance.

Sometimes, it’s the smallest acts of kindness that remind us what serving our community is all about.

Hooty, you’ve got a whole county cheering you on! 🦉
