There has been talk around the country about K-9 units being put out of work as one of the primary drugs the dogs were trained to search for is marijuana. As the law legalizing marijuana will come into effect later this year, the people of Estevan were worried for Estevan's Police Dog, Max, in the K-9 unit.

Constable Jeremy Taman with the Estevan Police service said that there are no plans to retire Max. Max will continue to do his work around the city with the K-9 unit and will not be losing his job.
