WYTHE COUNTY, Va. – The Wythe County Sheriff’s Office has added two new furry members to its team, and you might even get to help name them.
The sheriff’s office purchased the K9s thanks to a $49,577 grant. The dogs will be trained to detect narcotics and assist in tracking lost children, missing seniors, and criminal suspects.
