Reflections for K9 Jango

Thank you K9 Jango for your service to your handler, department and community. You are no doubt still on patrol but now doing so wearing Angel wings.

K-9 Jango May God carry you home over that Rainbow Bridge. I saw on another post a comment that I believe is so true so I will share. When a Police or Military Working Dog crosses that Rainbow Bridge all playing stops. All the others gather at that Rainbow Bridge and welcome the Hero home out of respect. What a grand sight that will be. I know you are in the best of company. My thoughts and prayers with your handler/partner. God Speed K-9 Jango take care of my boys.

With all respect; brave and selfless canine officer. Prayers for strength to handler and department. It has been said that it is better to live one day as a lion, than a lifetime as a lamb. Those that miss you will disagree yet I know that Jango would be saddened by your tears and would want you to remember and cherish the love and laughter that you have shared. To Jango; department and all that fight crime; we are truly lost without you.

Jango was an amazing K-9 for the BPD. Super athletic and and smart. He was relentless when pursuing suspects and a great partner for his handler. He will be greatly missed and always remembered as a hero. RIP Jango, you are a “Good Boy!”
