You have guarded our backs, always with that pleasure to please. We have trusted you even when we had our own doubts, and you prevailed. Thanks for never showing fear when there was fear and always going the extra mile no matter what the call was. You will be missed, you will never be replaced. Go and romp in that great puppy heaven, play with the ball and roll on your back forever. You earned it partner.

It is a very hard thing to loose a partner who would give his life for you at any time without hesitation. These K-9s are not just a tool, we get closer everyday they are with us. God will have another protector beside his throne. I also lost a partner in 2002 and it was the hardest thing I ever went through. It took me till 2011 before I got another one. From one handler to another, May God be with you.
