“Kiah” is loyal, does tricks, and tries really hard to please her handler. She also just made history. The former rescue just became the first Pit Bull Terrier to join a police force in New York.

Kiah had always shown promising working dog traits, and it was the Animal Farm Foundation that put her though training academy;  from there, she was invited to be a police dog, becoming one of AFF’s first graduates for police work. Officer Justin Bruzgul, now Kiah’s human partner, is proud of her and mentions how her breed itself isn’t as important as a dog’s training and willingness to learn. Kiah herself is only 60 pounds, but she puts every ounce into her work.  You can read more about Kiah here.
