After a few months of behavior and obedience training, the trainers at the facility recognized in K-9 Jax an "intensity" and drive to work.
The group reached out to the Onslow County (NC) Sheriff's Office, which then put them in touch with Gaston PD. The training for the dog then began to focus on narcotics detection and enforcement.
