A pit bull who was rescued from a dogfighting ring as a puppy has become an arson detection K9 officer -- and he could be the first of his breed to hold the position in the US
Hansel, a 4-year-old pup known for his cheerful energy and constant kisses, graduated from training on Friday, officially becoming a member of the Millville Fire Department."He's extremely excited," Tyler Van Leer, a Millville firefighter and Hansel's handler, told CNN."Whenever I ask him, 'Are you ready to go to work?' and bring out the harness, he starts doing laps around the crate.
Hansel is a single purpose arson detection K9, meaning he is specifically trained to identify ignitable liquids, such as kerosene, gasoline and diesel.While the future hero will begin taking on jobs immediately, Hansel will also be available to aid other police and fire departments outside of Millville.Part of his mission includes education to help the fire department teach students about fire prevention around the area.
