Greenville, SC – Greenville has gone to the dogs this week — in the best way possible. The National Police Bloodhound Association is in town, hosting a weeklong national training session for law enforcement officers and their K9 partners from across the country.
According to the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office, the specialized event focuses on “man-trailing” — a skillset used to locate missing persons, track suspects, and assist in criminal investigations. Officers and their bloodhounds are spending the week sharpening their tracking techniques throughout the Greenville area.
The Sheriff’s Office said it is honored to host the national event, which brings together agencies from multiple states for advanced education and real-world scenario training. “It’s an honor to support the continued education of these dedicated teams and the amazing dogs who make a difference every day,” the agency shared in a social media post.
Community members have spotted the K9 teams working in parks, trails, and urban areas across the city as part of the hands-on sessions. The National Police Bloodhound Association praised the warm welcome from Greenville residents, noting that this cooperative environment helps officers prepare for real-life search operations.
