The Brawdy family reached out to us this week to share their son, Brandonâ€™s experience in meeting Big Ben, Brett Keisel and all of their teammates in August of 2012.

â€œThe smile and awe that was on my nephewâ€™s face that day, captured in photos that we will forever cherishâ€, said his aunt, Janice Brawdy. â€œHe lit up when he was around them. I love looking at all the photos! It was such an amazing, wonderful day for him. Thank you Big Ben and all the Steelers family for making Branâ€™s day one of the best days ever!â€

Update on K9 Logen, Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, MD1232 viewsâ€œRecently, Montgomery County Sheriffâ€™s Office K9 Unit Supervisor Sgt. Joe Stanton and his partner, K9 Logen, along with Montgomery County Police K9 Sergeant Ari Elkin and his Partner K9 Leo, successfully completed K9 detector training. During this training, Logen learned to detect over 20 different combinations of explosive odors and Leo was trained to detect illegal drugs. Upon completion of this training, Logen and his brother, Leo officially became part of their respective agencyâ€™s K9 unit!

â€œLogen and another K9, Harley, are set to begin 16 weeks of K9 Patrol training beginning this month. K9 Harley, a 1-year-old German Shepherd was recently imported from Europe and selected to be Deputy Austinâ€™s first K9 partner. During these 16 weeks of K9 Patrol School, the K9 teams will be trained in the areas of Obedience, Agility, Tracking, Evidence Search, Suspect Search, and Criminal Apprehension.â€

Congratulations to Sgt. Stanton and Sgt. Elkin. Lets all welcome Logen, and Leo into the Sheriffâ€™s Office and the Police Department!

And thank you to Montgomery County Sheriff Darren Popkin, Sgt. Stanton, and especially Deputy Sheriff James Johnson for keeping us up-to-date on Logenâ€™s progress into the world of law enforcement.

Update on K9 Logen, Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, MD1141 viewsBrothers in Paws: Leo and Logen share a â€œtough guysâ€ moment after a long day of training last year.

Remember Logen? He was featured on the website last September, after the Sheriffâ€™s Office sent an email to Ben thanking him for the grant they received to purchase four â€œK-9 Stormâ€ bullet proof vests, one of which would be used for their new puppy K-9, Logen.

"Your followers will recognize some of the earlier photos of Logen as he was when he started his training with Sgt. Stanton at just 8 weeks old. He certainly has grown since those early photos. But what most of you donâ€™t know is that Logen and Leo are blood brothers! Born in April of 2012, these two canines are now part of the Montgomery County Law Enforcement Community. In the photo of the two K-9s together when they were 8-week old puppies, Leo is on the left and Logen is on the right.â€ -- Deputy Sheriff James Johnson
