University of Cincinnati adds two K9 units.

The University of Cincinnati has two new police dogs, trained to sniff out bombs for major events.

Two Labrador retrievers, Dozer and Boomer, will be the first K-9 officers in UCPD's explosive detection program.

The pair are specially trained to sniff out 26 different explosive chemicals. James Whalen, UC's director of public safety, said the program isn't in response to any particular threat, but rather because UCPD uses K-9 officers so much already.
