View all 32 ReflectionsAs a tribute to Jas's heroic service, I suggest all K9 units should be equipped w custom designed inner safety cushioned crates securely attached onto vehicle back floor with doG securely fastened in crate w custom safety harness that protects the doGs esp their neck from trauma of high speed crash impact &/or unit roll over during any type emergency call. This should be nationwide protocol for all K9 units that could save these courageous partner police doGs from needless fatalities suffered. Good boy Jas.
