IN MEMORIUM OF OUR K-9 HEROES
What is a hero? One definition says:
"someone who faces danger and adversity and displays courage for the greater good of all humanity"
Our K-9 partners work often in adverse conditions. They are at times challenged with tasks most dogs never see in their lifetimes. And they do it without complaint. They work through pain, they work through illness. And even when they are no longer able to, they still want to work. Someone once said that losing your K-9 partner is like losing your heart. It is. Often you'll find a searcher holding onto their dog, comforted by the wonder of that amazing creature who has offered themselves for our greater good. Thank you seems hardly enough, but often, that is all we can say.
