K9 Drako was involved in two overnight operations, demonstrating his effectiveness as part of the team. In the first incident, K9 Drako assisted a local police department in locating a man who had been seen jumping a fence at a storage facility. During the search, K9 Drako focused on a particular storage unit, alerting officers by jumping on the door and sniffing around its seams. Officers discovered the man sleeping on a couch inside the unsecured unit. The situation was handed over to the local police for further investigation.

Shortly after, K9 Drako was called upon again to track a suspect who fled on foot following an alleged domestic battery incident. He guided deputies and officers to a fenced yard, indicating strongly near an area by a fence and garage that was difficult to access. Officers found the suspect hiding behind a garage and took him into custody without any issues. The man faces charges of domestic battery.
