Lake County Sheriff’s Office Welcomes New Fi****ms Detection K9 “Benny”, handler is Deputy Mally.
The Lake County Sheriff’s Office is proud to introduce our newest four-legged deputy, K9 Benny, a 2-year-old Belgian Shepherd who recently joined our School Resource Unit.
Benny was born in Poland and purchased through Police Service Dogs, Inc. in Oxford, Florida. He is a single-purpose K9 trained specifically to detect fi****ms, ammunition, and spent shell casings, adding an extra layer of safety and security to our schools and community.
While Benny’s work is serious, he has a playful side too. He enjoys chasing toys, playing catch, and spending time with his handler. His favorite movie is The Sandlot—which inspired his name after the iconic character Benny “The Jet” Rodriguez.
Sheriff’s Office officials believe that Benny’s specialized training will be a valuable asset in helping keep Lake County schools safe. His addition to the School Resource Unit demonstrates the agency’s continued commitment to protecting students, staff, and the community.
We are excited to welcome K9 Benny to the LCSO family! 🐾
