The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department is proud to support the Riverside Sheriff’s Association’s 17th Annual K9 Team Competition. The competition is set for Saturday, November 03, 2012. The competition is free to the public and will begin at 8:00 AM. The event will be held at the Palm Desert High School, located at 74910 Aztec Rd., in the city of Palm Desert. The competition will highlight obedience drills, bite demonstrations, area searches and an agility course. Awards for the various competition categories will be awarded.
Law enforcement canine teams nationwide have been invited. In the past, canine teams from the western United States, Federal Government, Armed Forces, and other countries have competed in this prestigious event. Over 50 California law enforcement K9 teams are expected to attend this event.

In conjunction with the trials, the city of Palm Desert and the Palm Desert Police Department will be hosting a Public Safety Exposition. There will be various exhibits and demonstrations for the public.

We are encouraging the public to attend with their families, and enjoy a fun and informative day witnessing law enforcement canine teams in action.
