Corporal Shane Becker handling Lazer, the new drug dog, at Monday’s Great Bend City Council meeting.
Police departments work 24 hours, seven days a week.
The Great Bend Police Department divides the day into four shifts for their officers including Corporal Adam Hales.
Hales is the handler for Kia the drug dog. Only having one drug dog creates scheduling issues for Kia and his trainer so the GBPD spent $14,500 on another drug dog.

Police Chief Cliff Couch believes newcomer Lazer and veteran Kia will get along well.

Great Bend purchased Lazer, a German Shepard, last May and sent him to a five-week training session. Lazer’s trainer is Corporal Shane Becker and the two have been back from training for a couple of weeks.

Lazer just turned three years old and is a dual-purpose K9. Lazer can apprehend criminals and locate narcotics.
