Trooper Brian Martin/K9 Bacar
Troop K Headquarters
Orlando, Florida
K-9 Bacar retired at the early age of seven due to an illness. While he was in service he was responsible for the seizure of over $80,000 in cash, 600 pounds of Marijuana, 70 grams of Heroin, 10 Kilos of Cocoaine, 80 pills of MDMA and 10 grams of Methamphetamine.
K9 Bacar was also credited with 10 felony suspect non-physical apprehensions as well as the tracking and locating of two missing persons. K9 Bacar was known to children in the local area for his K9 demonstrations and personality and was also known to several police agencies in Central Florida for his assistance.
K9 Bacar worked from March 2003 until December of 2007 when he retired to live with the Martin family. The Florida Highway Patrol would like to thank Trooper Martin and his family. A special thanks to K9 Bacar for his dedication to the citizens of the state of Florida and the Contraband Interdiction Program. Well done!
I am a Trooper in a canine crew.
I have been trained to see it through.
When danger is near my ears perk up.
They taught me that when I was a pup.
I am often there to protect your rights,
My presence sometimes hinders fights,
I never attack with thought to kill,
When subduing one, my job I fulfill.
I never worry a single thought,
As to how I will fare at a certain spot.
The love I have for a handler's care,
Is all I need, each day to fare.
And if some day my luck turns bad,
I will relish the joys I have ever had.
To be with men who stand for good,
In a special kind of "brotherhood."
The story's end by now you know,
Of how I tried for a better show,
When I was called and I gave my all.
