Last month, the Northeast Cobb Business Association (NCBA) donated $15,000 toward the purchase and training of a new scent dog for the Cobb County Sheriff’s Department. Proceeds came from the NCBA’s 5K9 road race held this past June.
The dog that the Sheriff’s Office is in the process of purchasing is a Hanover Hound. He is 10 months old and is currently in training in South Carolina. He will be in training until mid-July.
The hound doesn’t have a name yet, but the Sheriff’s Office plans to partner with a local elementary school to see what name they can come up with.
