Canine Release Time. Canine Officers on a 4-10 schedule shall be released in a paid capacity for 0.75 hours prior to the “normal” conclusion of each regularly scheduled shift (4 shifts per week equaling 3 hours per week) for the normal care of the canine, including but not limited to training, grooming, feeding, bathing, and routine veterinarian care. Canine Officers on a 12-hour schedule shall be released in a paid capacity for 1.0 hours prior to the “normal” conclusion of each regularly scheduled shift (3 shifts per week equaling 3 hours per week) for the normal care of the canine, including but not limited to training, grooming, feeding, bathing, and routine veterinarian care. In the event that a Canine Officer is not released in sufficient time prior to the conclusion of his or her shift, the officer will be paid for additional time after the end of shift to compensate them for 0.75 or 1.0 hours of Canine care time as appropriate. The Town recognizes that this may result in overtime.
