View all 28 ReflectionsPrayers for the handler and the department. These K9’s become part the force. I know he will be missed greatly by his partner/handler. They become family in so many ways. My sons K9 is loved by us all even though our interaction is limited until he retires, he lives on the property with his partner. I can’t image what it’s like to loose your best friend and everyday working partner. Prayers for comfort and healing for the family as well. He died doing what he loved the most. Working. At least that’s my experience from these k9’s. May he fly high with the angels!
