Lets some border patrol officers house their working dogs at home through a new pilot program.
This bill would create a pilot program for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) canine handlers. These handlers could volunteer to keep their assigned working dogs at home instead of in central kennels. The program would run for two to three years at at least ten different border locations to see if it benefits both the officers and the dogs.
Today, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) working dogs are kept in central kennels owned or rented by the government. After this bill, CBP would start a pilot program for two to three years at at least ten border locations. This program would let volunteer canine handlers house their assigned working dogs at their own homes, changing how some of these federal law enforcement canines are cared for.
