Narcan kits to protect K9 teams
Police dogs are most at risk of narcotics exposure

ROBBINSVILLE, N.J. (WPVI) -- South Jersey police officers got lessons Tuesday in saving their 4-legged partners.

NorthStar Veterinarians, and the Overdose Protection Agency trained K-9 officers on administering the opioid antidote nalaxone to their dogs.

Each team also got an antidote kit of their own.

More and more law enforcers are getting accidental exposures to fentany, a powerful opioid.
