Madison hosts national training for K-9 explosives detection

Nearly 40 K-9 teams have been training over the last three days at the Kohl Center to complete their National Odor Recognition Testing. The test, developed by the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and brought to Madison through a joint effort with the UW-Madison Police Department, establishes a national standard for K-9 teams used by police and other agencies.
