Reflections for K9 Fang

Since your death FANG, not a week has gone by that I have not thought of you and your Officer Partner Matt Herrera. Gov.Ron DeSantis just signed legislation to make injury or death to a police K9, horse or Fire & Search and Rescue Dogs a second Degree Felony in Florida. Thank you for your service sweet angel four paws

I am so sorry Fang. Thank you for your service and the greatest sacrifice one can. If only more humans were more like you Fang, it would be a better world. My heart goes out to you Officer Matt Herrera for the tragic loss of your partner and best buddy. May your heart heal. May justice prevail for the criminal and he gets what is coming for dirtbags like himself.

A HEAVENLY HOME…

Are these magnificent creatures now with the Lord Himself in the Heavenly Realm? Pastor and Author Randy Alcorn at EPM.org certainly feels this is factual, and even devoted 2 chapters of his best selling “Heaven” book to establish his case. Many of his inspiring articles are at: https://www.epm.org/search/?q=Animals+in+Heaven. We can also get a glimpse of the Glorious Reunions awaiting their devoted Handlers, Trainers and Owners at ImagineHeaven.net May the Good Lord comfort these intelligent and brave animals and their human family and caring departments accordingly…

My heart breaks at the senseless and evil action which was taken against K-9 Fang. I want to see this killer charged and sentenced to the full extent of the law. I have respect for all K-9s in law enforcement and military service who protect and serve along with their handlers. Thank you Fang for your duty and precious sacrifice .

K-9 Fang, the beautiful light in your eyes can never been dimmed even if evil took your life from this earth. You were specially placed by God to perform as a hero and that you did well. Rest now, precious K-9, and may your partner, family and fellow officers know that you always had their backs and that, if given another chance, would without hesitation, do it all again because your heart was always to protect and serve.
