Description
This was taken at a funeral for another K-9 officer. While focusing my camera, I just happened upon Sgt. McIntosh paying respects to his fallen K-9 partner.Related content

I came along this while listening to a highly emotional song. Just as the cymbals crashed, I started crying.

I can't imagine my baby [doggy] dying one way or another. A partner in crime [fighting] must be equivalent to that pain one feels over family passing. Very good picture. Captured perfectly.

Former Bike Patrol Officer, but, not with the department that this officer was from.
Sorry for the delayed response. I've been away from dA for most of the month. I've had a serious family emergency going on. Hope to be back soon, though.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by!

This is very touching. I'm guessing he's a true hero.

I instantly choked up at this. I almost feel like I'm invading on this man's grieving by absorbing this shot, but sharing in his mourning for these amazingly selfless creatures can't be a negative. So much thanks to the two and four legged forces out there at all times protecting the innocents. Thank you.

This is sad and touching.
I've met a lot of K-9 officers in the past, so it's always sad to see them go, but I am happy that people take the time to thank them for their service, even after death. After all, a good officer deserves to remain in memory, regardless of being human or not.

The emotion here is amazing. Even in something so simple. Really a case of being in the right place at the right time, I suppose. Great capture, and well worth a DD.

This picture is one word Awesome, I am so happy that police actually make a site for their fallen canine brothers. I didn't know they did, probably because my town has no canine, but thank you for this look into the life of what goes on when the fallen furry police pass on.
