Dear MEL Topic Readers,
TSA's 'cutest canine' retires after almost 10 years of service
Founded after the 9-11 attacks in 2001, The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is a federal agency of the United States Department of Homeland Security. Its primary focus is on airport security and the prevention of aircraft hijacking. TSA is responsible for screening passengers and baggage at over 450 US airports. It employs mobile teams of dog handlers and trained dogs to detect explosives, the biggest threat to air travel.
Eebber is an 11-year-old Vizsla-Labrador mix who worked as a passenger screening specialist for nearly 10 years. He worked in passenger screenings at the Minneapolis airport while occasionally being deployed at major events like Super Bowls, Special Olympics World Games, and national car races. At the end of August, he started his retirement simultaneously with his hander, who will live with him for the rest of his life. It surely is a well-deserved retirement for Eebber. Many TSA and airport staff will surely miss him, the TSA’s Cutest Canine award dog.
