I received GORAN on April 2018 after completing an 8-week handler course at Highland Canine Training in Harmony North Carolina. At the school, the staff had labeled GORAN as a Problem Child and approached him with Kid Gloves. After forming a bond with GORAN, I learned that he was misunderstood and just a big baby. GORAN is a 4 year old German shepherd from Germany who is very protective of is handler. GORAN has been certified by the National Narcotics Detector Dog Association (NNDDA) for patrol and detection. Sgt. S. Buice and GORAN are attached to the Uniform Division and patrol Sector 3.
