BRADENTON, Fla. (WWSB) - While training in Tallahassee, BPD’s search & rescue K9, Liberty, was bitten by a cottonmouth.
Bradenton Police Department posted to X last week to share photos of Liberty recovering with her partner, Det. Moyett, by her side.
Liberty previously received the Crotalus Artrox Toxoid vaccine, which lessened the severity of the effects of the bite, according to her Vet.
BPD posted an update on Monday saying Liberty is doing great thanks to the care she received after being bitten.
