The Sioux County Sheriff’s Office is proud to announce that Deputy Martinez and his K-9 partner, Rocky have successfully passed the 2025 K-9 Narcotics Certification Trials held in West Des Moines.
This annual certification event brings together K-9 teams from across the state to test their skills in controlled, real-world scenarios; testing consisted of exterior vehicle sniffs and building searches, both essential components in narcotics detection work.
Sheriff Van Voorst said, “K-9 Rocky and Deputy Martinez continue to play a vital role in the Sheriff’s Office’s mission to combat illegal drug activity in Sioux County. Their dedication and performance ensure the safety and well-being of the communities they serve. We are privileged to have this team at the ready to further our public safety.”
Deputy Marinez and Rocky will be our guests on The Daily Grind Tuesday, April 29th.
