Coquille Police mourn K9 Sophie: ‘She will be missed’
The Coquille Police K9 Sophie died Saturday as a result of kidney failure, the department said. “The cause of her kidney failure is not known,” according to police. “Sophie was excited to work and loved the reward of her toy when she found her targeted narcotic materials. She will be missed.” Sophie joined the Coquille Police Department in 2017 “after a generous outpour of support by the Coquille community and supporters throughout Coos County,” the department said in a statement. “The Coquille Police Department would like to thank all of those who supported us in the purchase and in the cost of training and certifying Canine Sophie.”
