Yes, women can work on the K-9 unit. I have never heard of a department that will not allow that.

Many people are unaware of this, but the K-9 unit requires any candidates to pass a very difficult physical test. The reason being that as a K-9 officer, you will be in control of a large German shep and there may be time where you may have to actually lift the dog eg. if need to get the dog over a fence but still maintain control without unleashing.

As long as the physical can be passed, any candidate is eligible.
yes
