IDD Dogs to a good home

Marine Corps has about 50 - single purpose, explosive detection dogs that are up for adoption. This number will increase as we look to discontinue the IDD program. Please make contact with your civilian peers or other LE entities and see if they would like one (or more).

Please contact Mr. Rich Landgrebe (CC'd and info below) and he will see through the successful adoption.

The process is relatively easy; once a department states that they want a dog, the only thing that will take any time is to have the Ft Bragg vet do a final exam and copy the medical records for the dept. This normally takes 1-2 days. There is no cost to adopt an IDD or transfer to a Law Enforcement Agency except for the transportation from where the IDD is kenneled to the adopter's location.

The Town of East Haven, Connecticut is seeking an exceptional leader to serve as Chief of Police and provide direction and leadership to the East Haven Police Department and the community in creating a safe and secure Town. 

The Town.  East Haven, a town of approximately 30,000 population in 12 square miles, is a suburban residential community adjoining New Haven, a Town of almost 130,000 and a part of a metropolitan area of over 570,000.   It is 60 miles from New York Town on Long Island Sound.  The population is largely working class individuals who settled in East Haven to be away from the urban bustle of New Haven and other urban communities.  Quality of life issues are important to residents of the town, and they expect good quality public services.
The town is near a number of educational institutions, including Yale University and the University of New Haven, which has a strong criminal justice program.
When thinking about policing, residents most commonly mention the importance of honesty, and integrity and communication, as the most important characteristics they feel are most important.  There is strong support for the police department in any segments of the community.
The chief executive of the town is the Mayor, elected for a term of two years.  He is the appointing authority for department heads.  There is a Police Commission that oversees personnel and policy matters relating to the Police Department and is the appointing authority for all police employees except for the Chief of Police, who is appointed by the Mayor.
The police department has come under intense scrutiny during the last year due to allegations of improper police actions toward some persons.  This has had a demoralizing effect on many officers and the department is challenged to recover from these incidents and move toward excellence in policing.  The new Chief of Police will lead that reformation process, which has begun under an Interim Chief.
Crime in East Haven is fairly low and reflects the residential nature of the community.
The Position. The Chief of Police heads a department with an authorized strength of 53 sworn officers and 4.5 non-sworn. The operating budget for the Police Department for fiscal year 2011-12 is over $6 million.

• Keep the Police Commission fully informed as to police activities, department challenges and projected solutions to problems.
• Communicate honestly and clearly with the Town leadership and the community, as well as internally within the Department, regarding expectations, achievements and policing challenges.
• Effectively manage the budget; to innovate and provide better service within a constrained budget environment.
• Implement a plan of action that will address all the issues raised by the investigation and complaints brought by the United States Department of Justice in a manner that is sustainable over the longer term; with regular reporting on progress toward each element of that plan
• Beyond the issues raised by the U. S. Department of Justice, needs to develop a strategic vision for the department going forward over the next 3-5 years, including upgrades in technology, data generation, analysis, and use
• Needs to demonstrate impartiality, fairness and good judgment, especially in dealing with personnel and disciplinary issues.
• Restore a sense of trust within the department, to reengage with middle managers and first line supervisors
