DEDICATED TO ALL K-9 UNITS

LAST CALL

The strobe lights are flashing as the siren wail loud
The radio is calling K-9 unit come now
My partner is driving destination he knows
We arrived at the crime scene I am eager to go
Suspect fled down a dark street his location unknown
My partner unleashed me now the game has begun he told me to find him now the hunt has begun
My eyes locked on the suspect I gave chase without fear
As I got close behind him the suspect suddenly turned
A shot rang out loudly and his bullet hit true
I lay mortally wounded my life faded so fast
Now my time here is over but don't you be sad
To my partner I say this when you feel a tug at your left side or a cold nose behind your ear
Don't worry that's just me ALWAYS CLOSE, ALWAYS NEAR!

My heart felt sympathies to both of Kodas families - the McMullen Family and the Leon County Sheriffs Department. It is never easy to lose a member of your family. It may help (just a little) to know that you are in the thoughts and prayers of people everywhere. One last "Bark" for a fallen hero.

So sorry for Koda and his people. He and other K-9s represent courage and devotion without reservation. May he always have warm places to curl up, squirrels that never get tired of playing, companions to romp with, and love to welcome him.

As the Executive Director and Founder of Child Predator Busters we work side by side on our cases with Law Enforcement Officers across the Country and some Internationally.

Beyond our high level of respect for Law Enforcement Officers we are also strongly attached to the K9's. for Law Enforcement and some Military Officers. Each time we lose another K9 our hearts go out to the brotherhood, the Officer, Departments and family that give them a home and family when they are off duty.

It is with a broken heart that we share K9 Koda's loss with the Leon County Sheriff's Office in Florida and all of our friends and associates. Please keep everyone involved in your thoughts and prayers as they go through this time of
mourning.

Thank You,
