K9 Deebo, the tragic circumstances of your passing simply breaks my heart. What can be said? A beloved reward being the very thing to harm you. I pray your partner, family, department and Vets caring for you are able to let go, not question themselves or their actions and accept that the Lord simply wanted you home. An incredible fighter and beloved hero, you can rest now in Paradise with your elite group of fellow K9s. May He pour down loads of peace and comfort for those who miss you.

Lord God of unfailing love, to those families of our beloved nation, the United States of America, who are suffering in the wake of the loss of a Law Enforcement K-9 family member in the Line-of-Duty, help us to provide support. Allow us to be their rock and fortress in a time of immense pain and uncertainty. Help us to keep them safe and nourished in their time of grief, suffering beside them as we move toward healing and reconciliation. Lord God, in Your compassionate mercy, hear my prayer. In Christ Jesus, and by His authority, I pray. Amen.

I am sad to learn of the passing of a hero in K9 Deebo. I believe our Heavenly Father has welcomed him home into his loving arms where he will now patrol the Golden Streets of Heaven. May the Lord deliver Blessings, Comfort and Peace to his Handler, Family and all members of the Harris County Sheriff's Office, Georgia.

The First & The Last

The first to sense the hostility of a suspect,
The first to react to protect his master,
The first to enter where danger lurks,
The first to detect the hidden intruder.
The first to take action against violence.
The first to sense his master’s joy.
The first to know his master’s sorrow or fear.
The first to give his life in defense of his master.
The last to be forgotten by those who work with others like him.
They know him as a “Partner”, not just an animal.
