A new K-9 officer is joining the Fond du Lac Police Department next week.
Officer Kyle Hoefer and K9 "Brüx" completed their four week intensive training program on Friday, and will start their first regular patrol shift together as a team on Tuesday.
There will be an introduction that day at 3:00 PM at the police department on Main Street.
K9 "Brüx" is a 19-month-old German Shepherd trained in handler protection, criminal apprehension scent work and narcotics detection.
