WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) – The Brunswick County Sheriff’s Office is welcoming a new K9 to its squad.
One-year-old K9 Bayard was donated by Jeff Earp and The Funston Company. Bayard was specially trained for tracking missing individuals by Scent Evidence K9 in Tallahassee, Florida.
“Since 2021, Brunswick County has received over 2,100 missing persons calls, and Bayard will be an invaluable asset in our efforts to bring people home safely,” BCSO wrote on their Facebook page.
Bayard will be handled by Deputy R. Forbes.
