Meet Lt. Six & Lt Mark Elliott
Lt. Mark Elliott was Lt Six's handler and the reason this organization was started. Due to Lt Six retiring after 9 years, the Marion Police Department needed funds to help purchase a new Police K9 to take his place. Which brings in Ranger. After 9 years with the department, it was time to retire.
To purchase a new Police K9, the cost would be approximately $18,000 for the dog and training, making it ready to take to the streets.
Officer
K9 Ranger
K9 Ranger is a Belgian Malinois imported from Holland. Yes, Lt Elliott had to learn a new language. Ranger is a dual purpose dog, which means he is certified to find drugs, bomb tracking, cadaver, patrol car needs, and locates evidence, tracks, building searches and bites.
