On October 19, nearly 40 K9 teams from 13 agencies competed in four events centered around the primary duties they perform in the field. The NAS Fallon team took third place in the Top Agency category.   

Carson K9s controlled the narcotics detection portion, finishing first, second, and fourth, while Washoe K9s took first and second in apprehension, and Lyon K9 took first in agility. Capitol Police and the Fallon USN had a strong showing for explosives detection, taking first and second, respectively.  

In addition to the individual events, Matt Galvin with Lyon County K9 took top dog awards with his K9 partner Blady, and Washoe K9 took top team honors with the most cumulative points.   

The Carson County Sheriff’s Office thanks everyone who participated and came to show their support for the local K9s.

Thank you Kelli Kelly.Comment publication date: 3/21/26, 8:12 AMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon ManComment author: Bob SondgrothComment text: There are times when you should just know about someone. Who and what they REALLY were. Because they were devotional and IMPORTANT to the humans they connected with. The content of their life bled so that others could feel their own life’s importance. Teachers of justifiable life and art. That all can absorb and use as the best fertilizer for THEIR lives. Giving the silent secrets and the loud guidance. The Melon Man was a perfect specimen for how to devote. His passing meant a life book of feeling/knowing what gives other humans their paths to Love and Knowledge. Some humans are meant to show others their paths. And in that they secrete ways to profitably exist.Comment publication date: 3/18/26, 4:50 PMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon Man
