Comox Valley
2025-01-21 10:20 PST
The Comox Valley RCMP is proud to introduce Police Service Dog (PSD) Magic, the newest member of the Comox Valley detachment.
PSD Magic, born in 2019 at the RCMP Police Dog Training Centre in Alberta, was raised through the RCMP’s renowned Imprinting Program in Manitoba. In 2020, Magic was partnered with Constable Chris Johnson, and together they completed the six-month Basic Dog Handlers Course in Alberta. Since then, the team has served in the Lower Mainland, gaining three years of invaluable experience.
PSD Magic is highly trained in subject tracking, suspect apprehension, search and rescue (SAR), evidence detection, and explosives detection.
Cst. Johnson and PSD Magic have already begun working in the Comox Valley and are excited to bring their skills and dedication to the area. We look forward to the community getting to know PSD Magic and Cst. Johnson as they settle into their new role and continue making a positive impact in the Comox Valley.
