Mounted Patrol

Began in 1998, the Rutherford County Sheriff's Office Mounted
Patrol consists of Tennessee Walking horses coupled with trained Sheriff's deputies.
The program is completely funded with confiscated drug money and donations from the
public. The mounted units are used for crowd control at public events, search and
rescue, and other special assignments. Officers and horses are put through rigorous
training which allows them to handle diverse situations.
