EEtte was born at Lackland Airforce Base in TSA’s Puppy Program. The Program developed a breeding program to enhance the genetics for superior detection canines. The “E” litter had 3 puppies that made it through training and entered TSA’s Canine Explosives Detection Team Program as Passenger Screening Canines. EEtte was named after Sadie Ette, a young executive that was killed on 9/11 in the collapse of Tower 2 of the Twin Towers. EEtte started out her career as one of the initial teams to start the EDC Program in Kansas City International Airport with Handler Jasmine Bourne. After a successful start in Explosives detection, the team transferred to Orlando International Airport. EEtte and Jasmine then transferred to St Louis Lambert International Airport, prior to Jasmine’s acceptance into the FBI. At that time EEtte was retired and was adopted by TSA Handler Jeannie Carney and joined her littermate brother, EEbbers in the household. EEbbers continued working until 2022 and they are both now enjoying retirement together. EEtte supported the security procedures in all the airports she served as well as many special events including a Super Bowl, a National College Football Championship and others.
