TRAILING

Dr. Coby Webb

Dr. Coby Webb started her law enforcement career in 1992 when she knew her goal was to be a police officer and eventually a K-9 handler. While working a patrol assignment, she was asked to research the need of a Bloodhound for the Sheriff’s Department. She found there was a local volunteer and other volunteers in neighboring counties working Bloodhounds for her Department.
She began to attend the volunteer trainings and found other sworn officers were starting Bloodhound programs for their Departments. She was told and believed these dogs could track/trail-aged old trails and were able to scent discriminate.  However, later she found a Bloodhound is a dog and a dog is not perfect nor can it be a miracle animal. She wrote the proposal for her Department to start a Bloodhound program, but it was denied.  She was told if she volunteered her time and proved the Bloodhound was “reliable, needed, and an asset” for the Department they may adopt the program.
Webb obtained a Bloodhound from a working litter and volunteered her time to attended tracking/trailing schools in Colorado, Maryland, New York, and South Carolina. She obtained tracking certifications for her Bloodhound and began call outs on her own time.  Soon the Bloodhound began finding suspects and a lost hiker, which saved countless man hours. Sheriff’s Administration realized the benefits of a bloodhound program and adopted the program into the Sheriff’s Department.
Webb believed the bloodhound program was a success because of the support she received from the Sheriff’s Administration, and due to the high volume of requests that were received by deputies who realized the bloodhound program was an asset to their investigations.  Webb’s goal was always to be a patrol dog handler, and volunteered her own time with the canine team to agitate and help in any way needed. Webb tested for a canine position, and was selected as a canine handler with a Belgian Malinois in 2000. Webb became the first and only “dual handler” with the Sheriff’s Department.
During her K-9 years, Webb received many distinguished awards to include; Officer of the Year, Distinguished Service Medal, CPOA Officer of Distinction, Hero’s Award, and AKC Honorable Mention for 2 years in a row along with numerous commendations.
Webb’s Bloodhounds, Maggie Mae, and Abbigail, were on the FBI’s call-out list and responded to Samantha Runnion and Danielle Van Damm kidnappings along with other high profile cases. She has also worked numerous SWAT missions with her Bloodhound at local and national levels including the Sierra SWAT Challenge for several years. She was also asked to participate and teach tracking/trailing with SWAT for Urban Shield.
Webb earned her Instructor, Evaluator, and Judge Certifications for tracking/trailing or all dog breeds. Webb does not believe Bloodhound’s are the only dog breed that can scent discriminate and trail. She stayed in the K-9 program for years and worked four patrol dogs. She furthered her patrol dog experience by attending K-9 SWAT schools with her patrol dog and worked two narcotic dogs.
Webb became the K-9 Sergeant for a 22 dog program for her Department.  Approximately, eight years ago, Webb traveled to Africa and assisted the Mara Conservancy with tracking poachers. Webb receives continual invites to travel international and teach tracking/trailing for all breeds. Webb is currently training Bloodhounds in Southern California for several large law enforcement agencies on the west-coast.
Webb is also the Founder of Find’em Scent Safe which is a tool to help families be proactive to collect and store their loved one’s scent to help K-9 search teams with an uncontaminated scent article if a loved one is ever missing or lost. www.findemscentsafe.com.
Lastly, in 2010, Webb earned a Doctorate Degree in Management with a focus on Organizational Leadership. Webb is a Recognized Court Expert in Scent Discrimination and Tracking/Trailing. Webb is a Board Member of the National Police Bloodhound Association and is consulted on high profile cases regarding tracking evidence.
Webb is a mother of 13 year old twins and is a Police Captain in Southern California.
