Campbell police begin fund-raising drive to buy a police dog

CAMPBELL — The Campbell Police Department is beginning a fund-raising drive to buy a dog.

Not just any dog — a combination counter narcotic and tracking dog. A dog like Rebel, Struthers’ police dog, which Campbell often borrows.

“We go to Struthers first, then Youngstown, Boardman or Mahoning County,” Detective Sgt. John Rusnak said today.

“We’ve got to pick and choose when to borrow dogs,” said Patrol Officer John Gulu, adding that they don’t want to borrow other departments’ dogs unless it’s absolutely necessary.
