Includes shipping and handling. Company is out of Canada and does not charge tax. Vendor-Canine Outfitters. Company out of BC Canada. Reason-The patrol harness would be used for tracking and searching. The harness has the words "Police K9"written on the sides and front. The harness has a large ring � towards the back, which would allow me to attach my long tracking line for tracking and area searches, allowing him to work more freely. 5. K9 First Aid Kit and Narcotics Overdose Kit Model-None Cost-$237.90. Includes taxes, shipping, and handling. Vendor-Ray Allen. Company out of Colorado. Reason-To provide immediate first aid if Van Snapp is injured during a suspect search or ' narcotics search. 6. Agitation Helmet Model-None ` Cost-$129.30 Includes taxes. Vendor-Adlerhorst International Inc. Our K9 training vendor. I will pick up from them. Reason-Head protection during agitation. 7. Bite Sleeve and Padded Soft Stick Model-None Cost-$317.86. Includes taxes. Vendor-Adlerhorst International Inc. I will pick up from them. Reason-Agitation equipment. 8. Blank Gun and Blank Ammo Model-9mm blank handgun with blank ammo ' Cost-$266.14. Includes taxes. Vendor-Adlerhorst International Inc. I will pick up from them. Reason-Training equipment. We train for real life situations. The possibility of us encountering an armed suspect who shoots at us is very real. Van Snapp must maintain this type of training, so that if that situation is ever encountered, he will act according to how he is trained. 9. Narcotics Case (See Attachment 5) � Model-1500 Cost-$124.46. Includes taxes and shipping. Vendor-Pelican. Company out of Torrance, CA. Reason-Case to store training narcotics. 10. Muzzle Fighting Vest (See Attachment 6) Model-None Cost-$170.79. Includes taxes, shipping, and handling. Vendor-Ray Allen. Company out of Colorado. Reason-To protect my ribs during muzzle fighting work with the dogs. �.�� Palm Desert Station 4,� 73520 Fred Waring Dc Palm Desert,CA,92260(760)836-1600 � �, Inter-Departmental Memorandum To: Lieutenant Shouse#2395 Date: 10-31-08 From: Deputy Rivera#2917 Reference: Equipment 1. Handgun Light (See Attachment 1) ` Model-Insight Technologies M6X Cost-$272.48. Includes tax. Vendor-MEI Research Corporation. Company out of Temecula, CA. I will drive and pick it up directly from them. Reason-It is impossible for me as a handler to be able to react to a threat while following after Van Snapp during a search. In building searches or night searches, I must be able to be on target to engage a threat and see where we are searching at the same time. ' 2. Flexible Fiberscope (See Attachment 2) Model-7mm thick, 52inches long Cost-$544.00. Includes shipping and handling. Company is out of Canada and does not charge tax. Vendor-MEDIT INC. Company out of Winnipeg Canada. Reason-Van Snapp is now cross-trained in narcotics detection. Drug users will hide their dope in vents in cars or houses. When Van Snapp alerts to a vent in a car or house, the � fiberscope could be placed inside the vent to determine if any actual narcotics were present, rather than residual odor. This would eliminate the deputies from having to remove and take apart the interior in order to access the vent, thus, reducing searching time and unnecessary damage to the vehicle or house. 3. Attic Mirror (See Attachment 3) Model-l 000N Cost-$394.82. Includes shipping, handling, and taxes. � Vendor-U.S. Cavalry. Company out of Kentucky. Reason-In dong building searches, suspects will sometimes hide in attics. Prior to placing Van Snapp in an attic, I would be able to use the attic mirror, which has a telescopic handle with a light attached to it,to look into the attic to look for any immediate threats. If a suspect was located, this would prevent me from having to place Van Snapp into the attic, reducing the chance of injury to Van Snapp or myself. 4.
