Patrol doqs in K-9 unit are integral part ot tugene ponce
By Tiffany Woods

During a typical Friday night,
police officer Tom Schulkc and
iiis partner, linns, patrol the
streets of Eugene.
SelluIke, a University gradu
ate. drives while his partner
watches alertly out the window.
Hans is more anxious than
SelluIke. and often Schulke has
to tell his partner to calm down
and to be quiet
Hans weighs 85 pounds, is
almost six years old and doesn't
carry a gun. He is a German
shepherd on the Eugene Office of
Public Safety K-9 unit
The dogs in the K-9 unit,
which started 10 years ago. are
an integral part of the police
force. Schulke said.
“Wo could do our job without
them, but it would be a lot more
dangerous," he said. "They were
a luxury U) years ago. Now
they're a necessity."

Officer Tom Schulke taking a braak with Hana. hla partner from the
Eugene Public Safety K-9 unit, after a three-hour patrol In Eugene.
Schulke said the dogs are an
enormous timosaver because they
ran truc k suspects faster tfian the
officers can. ife points to an
example last month when in less
than an hour, a clog trucked a sus
poet in the kidnapping ol a two
year-old girl.
In addition, they also protect
the officers Schulke said his dog
has prevented him from being
shot and stabbed. He referred to
the time when his dog tracked
two robbery suspects in a heav
ily wooded area west of Junction
City.
"The terrain was such that
without the dog's nose, I would
have been walking around blind
ly,'' Schulke said. "If the dog had
gone by them, I would have been
dead."
The officers use the dogs to
track criminals and to search
buildings But the dogs must
undergo intensive training before
hand. They can be trained in Ger
many, Czechoslovakia or Hol
land, where they learn
commands in either German or
Czechoslovakian.
Schulke said he* had difficul
ty mastering the Czechoslovakian
accent and received many bewil
dered looks from Hans at first.
But gradually. Hans adjusted to
his American accent, and the two
reached a "compromise "
