SISTERS-CAMP SHERMAN, Ore. (KTVZ) — The Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire District is welcoming a new four-legged member to the team after Korra officially earned her therapy canine certification.
The district announced that Korra recently passed her evaluation. Her handlers, Tom and Rebecca Gilman, also passed their handler evaluations.
