Episode 11 - BADGER K9 Teams
Over the years, the BADGER has benefited from having K9 search dogs who serve to keep everyone safe. Our dogs, Mika and Dara, have served for 8 and 7 years respectively, and this past year we were delighted to introduce our two newest K9 team members, Hans and Greta. Along with their handlers, Dean, Chuck, Steve, and Ian, they make a dynamic team. Learn more about where the dogs come from, their training, and what the handlers enjoy most about the job. In partnership with Pure Ludington and Visit Manitowoc.
