Ventura Police Department K9 Unit

Officer Justin Fernandez and K9 Defender were partnered together in October 2023 and shortly after, they completed a five-week patrol school. Defender is certified in obedience, apprehension, hard surface and urban tracking, and explosives detection. The acquisition of K9 Defender, along with K9 Jag and K9 Rover, was made possible by a generous donation from Land Rover Jaguar Ventura.
