The South Lake Tahoe Police Department hosted the 7th Annual K9 Trials on a much needed rainy day. The patrol dog competition was held at Lakeview Commons at El Dorado Beach and we watched until we were drenched.

I loved this little gaggle of boys trying to stay dry while fully engrossed in the competition.
The obedience phase is conducted off-lead as the commands are called. These K-9 officers are quite impressive.
My favorite phase was agility where the dogs were tested on their ability to negotiate several obstacles and their handlers were tested on their ability to lead.


Oh man, so very true and we saw it happen!
