Deputy And K9 Graduate From Crisis Training

(From the Hardin County Sheriff’s Office)

We are incredibly proud to announce that Deputy Brayden Flowers and Crisis K9 Saber have officially graduated from the first-ever OPOTA K9 Crisis course!

This intensive 40-hour program, held through the Ohio Peace Officer Training Academy, is the first of its kind in the state. The training focused on preparing both Deputy Flowers and Saber for crisis deployments, ensuring they are ready to provide support, comfort, and de-escalation when our community needs it most.

Please join us in congratulating this duo on their hard work and their commitment to serving Hardin County in this vital new capacity!
