Special Consideration <br />Canine officers will be included in the program. One canine officer must be assigned to each <br />watch, when practical. Due to the limited number of officers assigned to this special <br />assignment and the need for handler and canine experience, movement among watches is <br />mandatory and canine officers may not stay on the same watch for longer than one year. <br />Failure to show movement will be grounds for the Chief of Police to deny one or more of those <br />officers' watch preferences and for the Chief of Police to make the watch assignments. <br />2. Trading work schedules (watch and days off) will not be allowed once the individual has made <br />his/her selection. <br />When transfers occur from a special assignment, the individual transferred from the special <br />assignment will assume the schedule, watch and days off of the individual who has been <br />assigned the special assignment. <br />4. In cases when sergeants and officers make their shift selection during times when they are not <br />scheduled to work they will not be compensated for that time. <br />35 <br />
