Kiana meets Kona in Kamloops
KAMLOOPS — The Transit Police Dog Service made a special visit to Aberdeen Elementary School Wednesday afternoon.
The service, which is based in the metro Vancouver area, brought in a dog specially trained to sniff out explosives.
Up until a few months ago, the chocolate Labrador Retriever had no name.
A contest was held to name the newest police recruit, and it was seventh grade Aberdeen Elementary School student, Kiana Onyango who came up with the winning name – Kona.
