"K9 Trapper exemplified the dedication, professionalism, and reliability expected of every member of law enforcement," said Corporal Matt Bird, Trapper's longtime handler. "His work undoubtedly made Douglas County a safer place, and it has been an honor to serve alongside him." The Douglas County Sheriff's Office extends its sincere gratitude to K9 Trapper for his service, loyalty, and countless contributions to the safety of Douglas County. His legacy will continue to be remembered by the deputies, detectives, law enforcement partners, and community members he served. The Sheriff's Office also expresses its appreciation to the Friends of Umpqua Valley Police K9 Programs, Bailey's Veterinary Clinic, and all the other businesses that have supported K9 Trapper throughout his career and for their continued commitment to supporting law enforcement K9 teams throughout the county.Photos from Douglas County Sheriff's Office's post
