Don’t grieve for me I served you well.
I loved you more than you could ever tell.
I am now an angel in blue.
I laid my life on the line for you.
I wore my badge with honor every day,
to keep citizens safe and out of harm’s way.
So when you see a badge worn with pride,
remember their comrades and friends that have died

How sad to lose K9 Bane so early in his career! We owe so much of our safety these days to the K9 forces worldwide! They selflessly serve and willingly sacrifice their lives so we can live in a free society. God bless all who train them, love them and work along side the K9’s, both in the private sector and the military.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Tulare, California Police Department and the family, friends, and colleagues of K-9 Bane, who was shot and killed in the Line-of-Duty on Sunday, December 9, 2018. Let us celebrate his accomplishments and remember his selfless sacrifice in the Line-of-Duty. Now that K9 Bane has left this life, please help the members of the Tulare Police Department cope with his loss with strength and courage. May K9 Bane always be remembered as a trusted colleague who completed his missions with true dedication and the unconditional love he provided his caregivers. Heavenly Father, by Your Word, death is not the end; it does not have the final say! For Scripture promises that all flesh shall see the salvation of God! All dogs do go to heaven, because they have a spirit that epitomizes God’s unconditional love. After all, DOG spelt backwards is GOD! Well done, good and faithful servant!

DearK9 Bane,
You were a Wonderful, Beautiful Officer who gave your life to try and protect us. Although I live far away from you, I feel like I was right next to you on the day that you made the Ultimate Sacrifice for me and all the other Humans that you loved and protected.
I believe that you went straight to Heaven after you passed through here and are sitting by God while he smiles down on you. Dennis Dullea

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…

Dear Tulare PD, K9 Bane’s Handler, and all who knew him: I am so sorry for your loss! K9 Bane: Thank You for your service and sacrifice! You will never be forgotten! Heaven has gained a puppy boy with a sweet face. To K9 Bane’s Handler: I wish you a full, and speedy physical recovery. As for your heart, that will take some time to heal from this loss.
