The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department is proud to support the Riverside Sheriff’s Association’s 19th Annual K9 Team Competition, sponsored by the city of Temecula. The competition is set for Saturday, November 8, 2014, at 8:00 A.M. and is free to the public to attend. The event will be held at the Linfield Christian School, 31950 Pauba Road, in Temecula.

The competition will highlight obedience drills, bite demonstrations, area searches and an agility course. Awards for the various competition categories will be given at a banquet later in the evening.

Law enforcement canine teams nationwide have been invited. In the past, canine teams from the western United States, the Federal Government, the Armed Forces, and other countries have competed in this prestigious event. Over 50 California law enforcement K9 teams are expected to attend this event.

In conjunction with the trials, the city of Temecula and the Temecula Police Department will be hosting a Public Safety Exposition. There will be various exhibits and demonstrations for public viewing.

We are encouraging the public to attend with their families, and enjoy a fun and informative day witnessing law enforcement canine teams in action. Due to the number of canines at the event, we are asking that no personal pets be brought to the competition.

For questions or additional information, contact either Sergeant Anthony Williams of the Riverside Sheriff’s Canine Team (951-922-7100) or email at [email protected], or Moreno Valley Police Canine Officer Kevin Brooks at (951) 486-6700.
