This week’s Friday fact is in honor of Cherry the retired Shepherdsville K9 Officer who passed away this week.
There are approximately 50,000 active police K9s in the United States. These highly trained dogs are partners to law enforcement officers and are used for various tasks, including drug and explosive detection, criminal apprehension, and locating missing persons.

They truly become partners in both law enforcement and life. Many of these amazing K9 end up spending their retirement years with the officer they served with.

As Halloween approaches, please bear in mind this crucial pet care tip: Be Mindful of Pet Costumes. When selecting pet costumes, choose wisely and prioritize your pet's comfort. While dressing up pets can be enjoyable, it is essential to ensure that the costume does not restrict their movement or cause discomfort. Avoid costumes with small parts that could be easily detached, as they may pose a choking hazard. Always supervise your pet while they are wearing a costume to ensure they do not become entangled or caught on anything. Prioritize their safety and choose simple, lightweight costumes that will not impede their ability to walk, see, hear, or breathe comfortably.
