K-9 Turbo, May God bless your handler and the department with peace knowing that He called you home when He did. You served as long as God permitted, then He wanted you home! Enjoy your place over the Rainbow Bridge.

I am sad to learn of the passing of a hero in Police Officer K9 Turbo. I pray for his handler and his family, friends and peers. May the Lord keep all members of the Columbia Police Department safe always.

A Prayer for K9 Turbo:
Thank you for your law enforcement service to the citizens of Columbia, South Carolina and to the Columbia Police Department. Let us celebrate your accomplishments and remember your selfless sacrifice in the Line-of-Duty. In Luke 3:6 Jesus promised, “And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.” So, death is not the end; it does not have the final say! All dogs do go to heaven because you have a spirit that epitomizes God's unconditional love. After all, DOG is GOD spelt backwards! Now, my furry, four-legged Comrade-in-Blue, rest easy, we will take it from here.
"Well done, good and faithful servant" [Matthew 25:11 ESV]
A Police Dog's Oath:
"I will lay down my life for you and expect nothing but love in return. I protect my officer with my life, and would gladly take a bullet in his/her place. I am sent in to find lost children and fugitives on the run. I find drugs and weapons and even bombs. I am the first sent in and sometimes the last to leave. I am the nose and ears of my officer. I will protect and serve my officer. I would die for my officer and for you. I only ask for compassion and a kind word in return."
Almighty God, the Columbia Police Department was fortunate to receive the gift of K9 Turbo from You. Now that he has left this life, please help them cope with their loss with strength and courage. I know that their beloved companion no longer suffers, and will live on in many fond memories. May he always be remembered as a trusted colleague who completed his missions with true dedication as he was trained, as well as, the unconditional love he provided his handler and caregivers. May the Lord God bless you always. In Jesus’ holy and mighty name, I pray. Amen.
