NASSAU COUNTY, Fla. â Do you SEE those EARS?
A new bloodhound puppy is getting familiar with his new office and will soon be on watch for the Nassau County Sheriffâs Office. Deputies say the 9-week-old was donated to the K-9 unit by the Santa Rosa County Sheriffâs Office.
One thing: He doesnât have a name yet, and Nassau County deputies need your help naming him!
To make a suggestion, head to the Nassau County Sheriffâs Officeâs Facebook page . The deadline for submissions is midnight Feb. 1.
If the name you choose has a significant meaning, make sure you explain that in the post.
Sheriff Bill Leeper and the team will review the names and make a selection. The winner will be invited to join the pupâs swearing-in ceremony.
The new K-9 will be trained to search for missing and endangered children and adults.
