 Hello, I'm Detective Leos, the Pascal Sheriff's Office. Hey guys, it's been easy in the community already specials for the Pascal Sheriff's Office and I just realized while I'm editing this video of Detective Leos and Therapy K9 Charlie that I don't have an intro and I lost all of my B-roll footage of them playing together. So just to let you guys know, it's a quick short video with our detective explaining a little bit about his role and Charlie's role and how they can help the community themselves, the agency, all of us that get to interact with them. So stay tuned, learn a thing or two and make sure you welcome them with open arms. I've been with the agency for about six years, a little over six years now. This is my new partner, animal assisted therapy dog K9 Charlie. He is a year old. He came from a program from Brevard County Sheriff's Office program called Paws and Stripes, which they train and repurpose dogs that were taken into the shelter to be either therapy dogs for programs like such as ours with the B-hit unit, which I'll explain later, or for military veterans with PTSD. I love that. So tell us what is B-hit stand for? I don't think I've ever done a video on it. So B-hit stands for behavioral health intervention team. That's a mouthful. Yeah, it's a lot. So adding the animal assisted therapy dog K9 into it in the mix. It's just it's pretty long. It's a long title. So what's Charlie's role and your role with B-hit? So my role prior to getting Charlie was focusing on those high utilizers with mental illness, getting them referrals, getting them services. Because a lot of the times they don't know what to do. Once they're in a crisis, they don't know what else to do. So we get in, make contact, get in touch with them, get them familiarized with law enforcement saying, hey, we're here to help. We're not here just to make a rest. We're here to help you. We want to help and make a positive impact to the community and make you have a fulfilling life going forward. I absolutely love that. So now that Charlie's coming to the mix, has that any of that changed or does it increase or just does it help, does Charlie help what you're able to do when you're out in the community? So we haven't started deploying yet to the community. We've been going around our administration, several departments throughout the agency. Saying hi to us. Going to dispatch, child protective investigations. Dispatch was a big hit. But once we get focused in and get established, we'll be focusing on children in crisis, continuing on with our case file subjects with the B hit unit, military veterans in crisis. And also possibly getting in with the SISM team, which is a crisis intervention stress management team, to help out with deputies on scene of involved shootings, drowning, child drownings, something that really affects the deputies. Exactly. Their emotional mental well being. Correct. Okay. So go out there and console them. Give them some time to get a reframe of mind. Yeah. Give them comfort to know that it's to zone it out. Exactly. Exactly. So I love it. So Charlie is for you as well. You guys are for the community, but also here to help the aftermath of agency members too when they, when we also encounter something that's traumatic. Yes. Yes. So he's going to be an all around guy. He's well into work. He's proven that to me. He's such, he's a sweetheart. He's, and you guys will see some clips that I'll answer somewhere in this video, or you should have already seen some clips now of just how sweet Charlie actually is. So you guys did all of your training with Revard County Sheriff's office. Is there any sort of, now Charlie's not a, like a, like a, a bite canine or a drug canine, but will you be doing any training with our canine trainers? So we were, we are going to continue in our training with obedience training. Okay. Okay. Yeah. So at Revard County, the pause and strikes program, they inmates train these, the dogs. That's incredible. And it's an eight week program, obedience training, to go on field trips, get them exposed to churches, schools, people of all ages, like young and elderly. Get them exposed to it. Get them familiarized and to go out, be out in the public. But when I, we're going to continue our training through with the canine unit with obedience, mostly. I love that. You're doing that with Corporal Rucks. Corporal Rucks. Yeah. Do you trust your dog? Yes. I love it. Okay. So this is basically your intro to YouTube and social media. Yeah. And welcome. But I'm sure we will be seeing so much more of you guys. Now I know Charlie's like, let's go dad. I need to go give some love and cuddles. But is there anything else that you would want the community to know about what you and Charlie are bringing to the table or anything that, you know, we're missing and not hit the granted. Anything else? No, we're, me and Charlie, we're happy. We're an awesome, we're an awesome, it's an awesome partnership. I wanted to be getting together for a week, but it bonded. It's a start of a lifetime. It's a start. And I'm happy to have him. And I believe he's happy to have me as his handler and looking to go out there to community and help out as much as we can. You guys are going to use some incredible things. I know that for sure.
