Just like every police officer is trained, you ran towards the trouble instead of away from it. You are a good boy, Tracker! Prayers to your handler, your department, and your city for losing such a brave soul as yourself.

K9 Officer Tracker, you gave your life to save the lives of your handler and other Law Enforcement personal. You did what you were trained to do you get a bad guy. Job Well done Tracker. You did the job not for monetary rewards, but for a rub behind the ears and a chance to chase a ball. You are now free to play with all of the others at the Rainbow Bridge where there are no "bad guys" to chase. To your handler stay strong.
