Gone to the Dawgs Paperback -

Originally from Chattanooga, Tennessee I moved to Houston back in the early 80's during the big oil and gas boom. The Houston Police Department had started a nationwide recruiting campaign due to the high volume of people moving into the city and I applied to become one of Houston's finest. Once hired by the department I began learning about Law Enforcement in cadet class #95 on January 12, 1981 in the HPD Police Academy and upon graduation was assigned to the Central Patrol Division. I continued to work at that location for approx. (19) years where I became a field training instructor (FTO) and also worked on the SWAT perimeter team. In June of 2000, I applied to the police K-9 Detail and continued working there until reaching my retirement (17) years later. I worked with (3) different police patrol dogs that were all single purpose manhunters. The last police canine dog that I worked with is named "Lex" and he was lucky enough to retire with me on February 25th, 2017. My wife Robyn and I have been married for almost (32) years have two grown children (Carrie & Cody). After writing this book I went back to work in the summer of 2019 and currently work for another Law Enforcement agency located in Montgomery County, Texas.
