K9 Riddick, your determination and dedication were unparalleled. We do not understand why evil was allowed to live and you were taken home. God most certainly wanted you with Him and the K9 warriors who preceded you to Heaven. In exchange, may He bless your partner, department and family with peace, comfort and hope. There is a star in the skies, your name on it, shining for you!

Allow us to be their rock and fortress in a time of immense pain and uncertainty. Help us to keep them safe and nourished in their time of grief, suffering beside them as we move toward healing and reconciliation. Lord God, in Your compassionate mercy, hear my prayer. Amen.

My sincere condolences to the handler, owner of this marvelous K9. Sorry for your loss. Some of us think, and conceder dogs as an other child. They are faithful to death, literally, NO matter what. He was a creature made by God and hopefully he will be restored when God himself restore his creation.
