U.S. Coast Guard Maritime Enforcement canine and their handler land onboard a Los Angeles City Fire Dept. harbor boat, as part of their K9 Vertical Insertion exercise, on the waters near Coast Guard Base Los Angeles-Long Beach, May 3, 2023. This training, lowering K9 Handlers and their canine partners from a helicopter to the boat and then hoisting them back up, helps them prepare for rapid response to threats, hone their skills, and obtain the best search behavior from the canines during insertion operations.
