The Maplewood Police Department currently has two canine teams. In 2019, Sergeant Joe Demulling and his partner, Ronan, graduated from the Saint Paul Police Department canine training program. In 2022, our second team joined the Department, Officer Robert Starkey and Kyro.
The Police Department has utilized a canine program since 1977, and since that time, 12 officers and their canine partners have dedicated a great deal of time and effort to the program.
