L\u2019aventure de Hue a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 Dieppe, au Nouveau-Brunswick, o\u00f9 son r\u00eave d\u2019enfance de devenir un agent de la Gendarmerie royale du Canada (GRC) s\u2019est concr\u00e9tis\u00e9. Apr\u00e8s avoir pos\u00e9 sa candidature \u00e0 la GRC pour la premi\u00e8re fois en\u202f1999 alors qu\u2019il \u00e9tudiait \u00e0 l\u2019Universit\u00e9\u202fLakehead, \u00e0 Thunder\u202fBay, il est retourn\u00e9 \u00e0 Moncton et a travaill\u00e9 \u00e0 Ambulance\u202fNouveau-Brunswick, o\u00f9 il r\u00e9pondait aux appels au 911 pour les Services d\u2019urgences de sant\u00e9. C\u2019est l\u00e0, en\u202f2002, qu\u2019il a re\u00e7u la nouvelle qu\u2019il avait \u00e9t\u00e9 s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9 pour aller \u00e0 l\u2019\u00c9cole de la GRC, Division D\u00e9p\u00f4t. Gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 son travail remarquable et son d\u00e9vouement, il s\u2019est officiellement joint au service \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 26\u202fans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u202fJ\u2019ai toujours voulu \u00eatre un agent de la GRC\u202f\u00bb, se rem\u00e9more-t-il en r\u00e9fl\u00e9chissant \u00e0 ses aspirations d\u2019enfance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ainsi, Yarmouth, en Nouvelle-\u00c9cosse, est devenu son premier chez-soi \u00e0 la GRC. C\u2019est \u00e0 ce moment qu\u2019il a d\u00e9couvert sa passion pour un r\u00f4le unique et tr\u00e8s sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9, soit celui de ma\u00eetre-chien de police. D\u00e8s le d\u00e9but, Hue savait qu\u2019il voulait travailler aux c\u00f4t\u00e9s de ces incroyables animaux. Il a relev\u00e9 avec enthousiasme le d\u00e9fi d\u2019\u00e9lever et de dresser des chiots.\u00a0
\u00a0
Le parcours pour devenir ma\u00eetre-chien de police\u202f: former la nouvelle g\u00e9n\u00e9ration\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Il n\u2019y a pas de parcours facile ou rapide pour devenir ma\u00eetre-chien de police. Il faut habituellement entre cinq \u00e0 sept\u202fans du d\u00e9but \u00e0 la fin, ce qui n\u00e9cessite du d\u00e9vouement, de la patience et un v\u00e9ritable amour pour le travail avec les animaux. Ainsi, le parcours commence lorsqu\u2019un membre manifeste sa curiosit\u00e9 en se joignant aux ma\u00eetres-chiens locaux pendant les journ\u00e9es de dressage, o\u00f9 ils servent de \u00ab\u202fproies\u202f\u00bb. En tant que proies, les membres cr\u00e9ent des pistes et se font mordre (en portant bien s\u00fbr de l\u2019\u00e9quipement de protection), permettant ainsi aux chiens de police d\u2019\u00eatre expos\u00e9s \u00e0 diff\u00e9rentes situations. Ces derni\u00e8res peuvent comprendre de se cacher dans de grands b\u00e2timents ou m\u00eame \u00e0 l\u2019arri\u00e8re d\u2019un autobus pour s\u2019assurer que les chiens sont dress\u00e9s dans divers environnements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une fois qu\u2019un membre a d\u00e9montr\u00e9 ses connaissances concernant les chiens de police, il passe \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9tape suivante, soit le cours d\u2019\u00e9levage de chiots au Centre de dressage de chiens de police d\u2019Innisfail, en Alberta. Ce cours d\u2019une semaine enseigne aux membres la fa\u00e7on de dresser des chiots de huit\u202fsemaines, et d\u2019interagir avec eux, en jetant les bases de leur futur travail policier. Apr\u00e8s avoir termin\u00e9 ce cours, les membres re\u00e7oivent un chiot \u00e0 \u00e9lever et, \u00e0 ce stade, ils deviennent des \u00ab\u202fresponsables de l\u2019impr\u00e9gnation\u202f\u00bb. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

En g\u00e9n\u00e9ral, un responsable d\u2019impr\u00e9gnation \u00e9l\u00e8ve un chiot jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce qu\u2019il ait environ 12\u202fmois. Pendant cette p\u00e9riode, ce dernier est test\u00e9 \u00e0 diverses \u00e9tapes pour s\u2019assurer qu\u2019il est compatible avec le travail policier. Une fois qu\u2019il a environ un\u202fan, le chiot est renvoy\u00e9 au service de formation pr\u00e9alable du Centre de dressage de chiens de police, o\u00f9 il poursuit son dressage. Enfin, si le chien r\u00e9pond toujours aux crit\u00e8res rigoureux lorsqu\u2019il a entre 18\u202fet 24\u202fmois, il est pr\u00eat \u00e0 commencer un dressage sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9 de chien de police. Toutefois, le processus ne s\u2019arr\u00eate pas ici pour le responsable de l\u2019impr\u00e9gnation. Apr\u00e8s avoir renvoy\u00e9 le chiot de 12\u202fmois au Centre de dressage de chiens de police, il commence le processus avec un nouveau chiot de 8\u202fsemaines, poursuivant ainsi le cycle de d\u00e9veloppement essentiel \u00e0 la formation de chiens bien dress\u00e9s et de ma\u00eetres-chiens bien form\u00e9s, et efficaces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avant de se voir confier un chien de police en particulier et de fa\u00e7on permanente, le membre doit travailler avec divers chiens en d\u00e9but de dressage, et ce \u00e0 plusieurs reprises, avant de passer au Centre de dressage de chiens du service de police \u00e0 Innisfail, en Alberta. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

En tant que ma\u00eetre-chien, la premi\u00e8re responsabilit\u00e9 de Hue a \u00e9t\u00e9 l\u2019affectation de son premier chiot, Asta. Il s\u2019est d\u00e9vou\u00e9 \u00e0 prendre soin d\u2019Asta d\u00e8s l\u2019\u00e2ge de huit\u202fsemaines, et jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce qu\u2019elle soit pr\u00eate \u00e0 entrer en service \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge d\u2019un\u202fan.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u202fC\u2019est une grande responsabilit\u00e9, explique-t-il. Nous les \u00e9levons comme des membres de la famille.\u202f\u00bb  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Au cours des six \u00e0 sept\u202fann\u00e9es suivantes, Hue a continu\u00e9 d\u2019\u00e9lever des chiens tout en servant comme membre des services g\u00e9n\u00e9raux de la GRC, en conciliant les exigences de t\u00e2ches quotidiennes de policier et ses fonctions de dressage avec Asta. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sa passion et son engagement ont port\u00e9 ses fruits. Hue se rappelle de la fa\u00e7on dont le lien qu\u2019il a tiss\u00e9 avec Asta a contribu\u00e9 au succ\u00e8s de leur travail. Apr\u00e8s que cette derni\u00e8re a atteint l\u2019\u00e2ge de commencer son service, Hue et elle ont relev\u00e9 divers d\u00e9fis, comme leur premi\u00e8re affectation importante aux Jeux olympiques de\u202f2010 \u00e0 Vancouver, o\u00f9 Asta s\u2019est sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9e dans la d\u00e9tection des explosifs.\u00a0

\u00catre ma\u00eetre-chien peut aussi comporter un ensemble unique de d\u00e9fis. Ainsi, m\u00eame dans les conditions les plus difficiles, il faut pers\u00e9v\u00e9rer. Il peut \u00eatre difficile, physiquement et mentalement, de suivre un suspect dans les conditions m\u00e9t\u00e9orologiques hivernales et le vaste milieu sauvage du Canada. Ce m\u00e9tier demande de passer beaucoup de temps loin des proches et coll\u00e8gues, souvent en solitaire avec son compagnon canin en terrains broussaill\u00e9s par temps froid pour trouver la cible, qui pourrait \u00eatre un enfant ou une personne \u00e2g\u00e9e port\u00e9e disparue, ou un suspect recherch\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Confront\u00e9 \u00e0 des \u00e9checs, comme une transition difficile avec un nouvelle chienne nomm\u00e9e Fana, Hue a appris de pr\u00e9cieuses le\u00e7ons.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u202fIl peut \u00eatre plus long de dresser une chienne\u202f\u00bb, explique-t-il en soulignant les subtilit\u00e9s du comportement des chiens, et de leur dressage.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malgr\u00e9 les difficult\u00e9s, la d\u00e9termination de Hue n\u2019a jamais faibli. En\u202f2017, apr\u00e8s le retour de Fana \u00e0 l\u2019installation de dressage des chiens de police, commun\u00e9ment appel\u00e9 \u00ab\u202fchenils\u202f\u00bb, pour suivre un dressage suppl\u00e9mentaire, Hue s\u2019est retrouv\u00e9e sans chien de police et \u00e0 la crois\u00e9e des chemins. Il a repris les services g\u00e9n\u00e9raux \u00e0 Moncton avant de retourner \u00e0 Yarmouth en\u202f2018.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malgr\u00e9 le fait que son parcours \u00e9tait mouvement\u00e9, ce dernier l\u2019a finalement guid\u00e9 vers le r\u00f4le qu\u2019il ch\u00e9rissait le plus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Retour \u00e0 son premier amour <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apr\u00e8s avoir si\u00e9g\u00e9 au Conseil d\u2019administration de la F\u00e9d\u00e9ration de la police nationale, il a eu l\u2019occasion de recommencer \u00e0 dresser des chiens en 2022. Son enthousiasme \u00e9tait palpable alors qu\u2019il r\u00e9int\u00e9grait ce r\u00f4le important, \u00e0 pr\u00e9sent avec Rico, son nouveau partenaire.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u202fLe dressage des chiens m\u2019a manqu\u00e9\u202f\u00bb, admet-il.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rico, un chien \u00e9nergique \u00e2g\u00e9 de deux\u202fans, a insuffl\u00e9 une \u00e9nergie nouvelle \u00e0 leur relation, mais le processus de dressage \u00e9tait exigeant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hue souligne l\u2019importance d\u2019\u00e9tablir un lien \u00e9troit avec Rico, mentionnant que la confiance est essentielle dans leur travail.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u202fNous demandons aux chiens de police de faire des choses qui ne sont pas naturelles pour eux, explique-t-il. Ils doivent faire enti\u00e8rement confiance \u00e0 leurs ma\u00eetres.\u202f\u00bb <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une journ\u00e9e dans la vie\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une journ\u00e9e typique pour les partenaires Hue et Rico est tout sauf ordinaire. Chaque jour peut apporter un nouveau d\u00e9fi ou une nouvelle op\u00e9ration n\u00e9cessitant de l\u2019aide. Des recherches de stup\u00e9fiants au dressage, chaque moment est une occasion d\u2019approfondir leurs liens et d\u2019am\u00e9liorer leurs comp\u00e9tences.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u202fOn ne sait jamais ce que la journ\u00e9e nous apportera, se rem\u00e9more-t-il. Hier, on nous a appel\u00e9s pour une violation de domicile avec des suspects arm\u00e9s.\u202f\u00bb <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Au cours de son dressage, Rico a v\u00e9cu une exp\u00e9rience marquante. Il a accidentellement aval\u00e9 ce qu\u2019on croyait \u00eatre un Kong, ce qui a entra\u00een\u00e9 une intervention chirurgicale n\u00e9cessaire. Comme on peut se l\u2019imaginer, Rico n\u2019\u00e9tait pas tout \u00e0 fait enchant\u00e9e de la situation! En fait, il avait aval\u00e9 une balle de caoutchouc qu\u2019il avait d\u00e9gonfl\u00e9e \u00e0 force de la m\u00e2cher avant de compl\u00e8tement l\u2019avaler. La balle a \u00e9t\u00e9 utilis\u00e9e comme r\u00e9compense pendant son dressage pour d\u00e9tecter diverses odeurs de drogue au Centre de dressage de chiens de police. Malgr\u00e9 l\u2019op\u00e9ration importante qu\u2019il a subie, Rico s\u2019en est rapidement remis. Il a recommenc\u00e9 \u00e0 effectuer des recherches seulement sept\u202fjours plus tard et a repris son dressage complet apr\u00e8s deux semaines. Apr\u00e8s tout, les chiens restent des chiens, peu importe leur travail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malgr\u00e9 l\u2019impr\u00e9visibilit\u00e9, Hue et Rico prosp\u00e8rent dans cet environnement. Son amour du plein air et son esprit d\u2019aventure font du m\u00e9tier de ma\u00eetre-chien le travail parfait.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u202fLa plupart des ma\u00eetres-chiens aiment les sensations fortes\u202f\u00bb, dit-il en souriant et en se souvenant du plaisir de retrouver des personnes disparues ou d\u2019appr\u00e9hender des suspects. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regard vers l\u2019avenir\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alors que Hue se tourne vers l\u2019avenir, il demeure d\u00e9termin\u00e9 \u00e0 jouer son r\u00f4le au sein de la GRC et \u00e0 travailler avec Rico. Comme il aspire \u00e0 continuer d\u2019\u00e9voluer en tant que ma\u00eetre-chien, il vise \u00e0 int\u00e9grer davantage l\u2019utilisation des chiens de police dans les situations tactiques, en soulignant leur r\u00f4le essentiel dans les situations \u00e0 risque \u00e9lev\u00e9. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u202fLes chiens deviennent de plus en plus essentiels dans divers sc\u00e9narios\u202f\u00bb, fait-il remarquer, en mettant l\u2019accent sur l\u2019importance du soutien et de la formation pour les ma\u00eetres-chiens, ainsi que du dressage pour leurs partenaires canins.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
