The Pemberton Twp. K9 Facebook page is to help promote, educate and celebrate our four legged law enforcement Officers.
The K9 Unit is a part of the PTPD Patrol Division. The K9 Unit’s primary mission is to perform basic police related duties, such as answering calls for service, while supplementing the Patrol and Detective Divisions with K9 applications. K9’s primary use as “searching tools” make PTPD Officers more effective in solving crimes and keeping the Town’s residents and its Officers safe.
The K9 Unit’s secondary mission is community policing oriented. The department K9’s educate the public about the police department’s mission, the K9’s specific function within the department, and general safety. This is done through lectures and demonstrations both in and out of the community.
