SUPERIOR, WI (KDAL) – After being canceled last year because of the pandemic, the celebration of area law enforcement K-9’s returns on Thursday.
The 7th Annual Operation K-9 will be held at the UWS football field in Superior where the bleachers can accommodate a larger crowd while allowing for social distancing.
Operation K-9 features dogs from five area law enforcement agencies showing off their varied skills. Some specialize in apprehending dangerous suspects, others can sniff out narcotics, fire arms and explosives.
The event will also include a tribute to Luna, a K-9 that was killed in action earlier this year while protecting her partner.
Operation K-9 will be held from 4 to 7:30 p-m. Admission is free but donations are encouraged. Food, beverages and K-9 souvenirs will be available for purchase
