SARASOTA COUNTY, Fla. — Welcome to the team, Kye!

The Sarasota County Sheriff's Office welcomed the 18-month-old German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois mix to the department's K-9 unit.

Kye is originally from Budapest, Hungary, and joined the sheriff's office in March.

He and his partner, Deputy Chris Indico, went through more than 500 hours of training together and officially became a team this week.

During his training, Kye learned all about obedience, agility, building and area searches, tracking, criminal apprehension, and explosive detection. 

Good luck, Kye!
