Today we had the honor of creating a memorial urn for **K9 Maverick** of the Maine State Police
Some dogs serve.
Some dogs protect.
And some leave a mark that can never be replaced.
To many, Maverick was a powerful, relentless K9 — Focused, driven, and fearless in his work. To Kyle and his family, he was a partner, a protector, a best friend… and a giant, goofy love bug at home.
The bond between a handler and his K9 is something few truly understand. They train together. They work together. They face the unknown together. Maverick made sure Kyle never stood alone.
Though their time together was far shorter than anyone expected, Maverick did what he loved, working side by side with the one he loved most, right until the end.
It was a privilege for us to craft something worthy of that bond. This urn was built not just as a vessel, but as a tribute to service, loyalty, and sacrifice.
Rest in Paradise, Mav.
Your watch may be over, but your legacy is not.
We are proud to have played a small part in honoring a very good boy. 🐾💙
