CELINA —
A Mercer County K-9 unit died Wednesday after his handler left him in a patrol car.
From the one that happened on July 18, 2012 in Arizona:
Officer Lankow is described as distraught following the death of his partner. Cook explained that during Jeg’s hospital stay, Lankow refused to leave the dog’s side.
“I want to make sure people understand that [Lankow] is emotionally ruined by this event,” Cook told the Arizona Daily Star. “His wife is really hurt by this, his kids are hurt.”
Sad, sad, sad!
>>I’ve heard of this happening before—maybe a couple of years ago.
There were two died together the same way no more than a few weeks ago. The story was posted here. JoeSixPack might know of the link.

A brave police officer died today!!
This was the worst story I’ve read today — be sure to click on the article to see Zac’s photo, he was a beautiful Belgian Shepard.
(my rescue is part Belgian Shepard, he would give his life protecting us)
How could ANYONE be so F-ING STUPID!!
From the article:
“When at the office, the car is either left running with air conditioning on or Zak comes into the building,” said Grey. “The car was not running and it appears that Zak was overcome by the heat.”
Unbelievable!!
Yeah, I just found one that happened in AZ on July 18 (posted above). I don’t know if this is still happening with children—haven’t heard about a case in a long time thank goodness. I remember that one in AZ a few years back where the mother couldn’t find a sitter or something and left her child in the car while she worked.
Toddler Dies After Hooters Mom Forgets Child in Hot Car

“Doesn’t sit right with me, considering that I can remember seeing a police motorcycle honor guard escorting a K9 dog that was ‘killed in the line of duty’ to a funeral while a police band played bagpipes and teary-eyed mustached officers wept as a 21 gun salute was fired. I had to look around wondering “Am I the only person who thinks they’re really overdoing it here?”.”
SILENCE, UNTERMENSCH!
A POLICE STATE IS A SAFE STATE!
Commies in media deliberately glorify cops because they ardently desire a police state. Consider that being a law enforcement person is not sufficiently dangerous to be in the Top Ten Most Dangerous Occupations. US Bureau of Labor statistics has so stated for many years.
But, any police man, even a police dog, killed at work is granted de facto sainthood by the commie crowd. But fishermen, loggers, truck drivers, construction workers - all are ignored despite their occupation being in the Top Ten.
Sorry, that is a German Shepherd.
And it is sad.
On FR you get a child-car every year at least.
I’m convinced we’ve had more troubles with “hot children” because of all the damned communist baby-seat laws.
Sir, you mean Joe 6-Pack
Joe: You were mistaken for your “alter ego” JoeSixPack again. ;-)
I love my dog too, but c’mon dogs aren’t people.
I’m glad you told me, because I come across the occasional pooch story - did a few days ago, in fact - and have been pinging the wrong Joe!
So, when will the dog’s handler be treated like anyone *else* responsible for the death of a police dog?
And to think we are suppose to depend on these guys to protect us!
I can’t believe this happened again. If an officer sees a child- or an animal, in a car, wouldn’t they do something about it? Do they think they’re somehow immune? Or is there foul play involved?
This is just bizarre.
Judas Priest what the hell is it with cops and dogs lately? If they’re not shooting them, they’re roasting them alive in squad cars! F’ing cops.
If a criminal kills a police dog it’s murder..
I expect no less of a charge for the officer.
He doesn't anymore.
He doesn't anymore.
I don’t know, this guy drops by our office quite a bit and usually leaves the dog in the car with the thing running. Really awesome dog. He has a remote release and had to use it when he went to serve a failure to appear warrant and got jumped by the whole family. That dog saved his life.
When they’re not killing citizens’ dogs, they’re killing the dogs the taxpayers have bought them.
