"If I don't need to do it, it would be much easier," Mr. Ambrose noted. noted. The composting facility would use paper sludge, manure, and yard waste. In the future, the facility could be expanded.to include vegetable trimmings trimmings from consumers. "There will be no sewage sludge going into the facility," Mr. Ambrose Ambrose said. The number of trucks going into the composting area will be between eight to 10 per day and could possibly possibly peak at 20 trucks during the fall months due to more yard waste being being hauled during the 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. operating hours. Neighbors' fears would be wiped out because no metals would be accepted accepted into the composting facility, Mr. Ambrose said. After Mr. Ambrose took his, proposal proposal to this council in late-March 1992, it brought protests from area residents who did not want the facility facility near their homes. The proposal stage is as far as Mr. Ambrose got. Now, Mr. Ambrose is fighting- time and a proposed road closure by Scugog Township. However, since he has not made an application for the rezoning of the property -- but only a proposal- ~ he has to prepare a formal appli- -- cation, said committee member Ann Dreslinski. "It is time for Mr. Ambrose to make an application and submit further further information," she said. And, because she and the rest of die committee want to know exactly how Mr. Ambrose envisions the whole compost plan, they have invited invited him to submit an application if he is interested in doing so. "We want it in writing," Councillor Councillor Dreslinski said.

"We'll intervene in potentially dangerous situations. The majority of calls will probably be in tracking and searching. We will also do public public relations work, including visits to local schools." Cain could be a virtual life-saver in open area searches where every second counts in locating missing or injured people. "The biggest advantage to using a dog in searches is the manpower hours saved." A properly trained dog can find a target quicker by scent than a team of officers might by sight alone. "The dog will also be called out to assist officers in situations where there is some potential of getting hurt. The dog can reduce that risk."

'The dog is a good deterrent to fleeing," says Vanderduim. "A lot of people would be aware of his potential potential and he can obviously outrun anyone who tries to flee." Cain's size, his obvious drive, and his aggressiveness arc the main reasons he'll turn out to be an excellent excellent police dog. Yet, until the dog is fully trained, , those traits could also prove dangerous dangerous where Vanderduim's youngest kids are concerned. Like any responsible animal owner, Vanderduim is watchful for the safety of his children around all of the animals on his property. That includes the two horses, the cats and the other family dog. But, in Cain's case, this father's natural vigilance starts working overtime. "Cain plays more aggressively than a regular pet would. For the time being he keeps a eye out in case Cain and four-year-old Emily make a grab for the same toy. "All he's doing is responding to his retrieval drive. He's very alert." Exactly how close; Cain will be allowed to grow to his master and family will be determined over time. Some police dog trainers prefer to keep a professional distance. Others feel they can pamper their animals more. Right now Vanderduim is just trying to get the dog integrated comfortably comfortably into family life. "He's a working dog," he said, "You'd treat your pet differently." The family has to get' used to Cain, and Cain will have to get used to the family, he said. Most forces in the province have already established canine units, and many have more than one dog. The Metro Toronto Police Force, which is supplying resources and personnel personnel for Cain's training, has 18 dogs. Until now, a restrictive budget made starting a canine unit in Durham Durham next to impossible. But, thanks to the Lions Club in Oshawa, which put up the finances for the dog, Durham Region can continue to be top notch, "I see so many positive aspects to this that I think we really would be missing the boat if we didn't eventually eventually expand," said Constable Vanderduim.
