Willie won 2nd place as the best dog of this competition as he stood out in categories such as suspect search, narcotic detection, obedience, agility, and protection.

More than 40 duos from several agencies of the world attended this event which took place in Murrieta, California, which shows that Mexico, and specifically Tijuana, is a reference regarding the efficiency of special units to fight crime.

During these tests, the dog "Aras" also participated, and he was recognized as a distinguished participant as this was his first time attending with his trainer.

In this new era of police humanism in Tijuana, maintaining permanent preparation that includes respect for species, environmental spaces, and direct assistance to society is a priority. That's why, as an institution, we help our four-legged heroes stand out, not only due to their animal beauty, but because of the care they provide to Tijuana native families.
