San Joaquin County Sheriff\u2019s K-9 Dies Day after Collapsing at Training<\/p>\n
A San Joaquin County sheriff\u2019s K-9 died Thursday, a day after collapsing while training. Wednesday afternoon, K-9 Haakon collapsed at training and was taken to a veterinarian, according to the sheriff\u2019s office. He was able to walk home and was meant to rest for a few days with his family. The sheriff\u2019s office reported K-9 Haakon died the next morning. K-9 Haakon and his partner, Deputy Joshua Stillman, worked together for nearly seven years. \u201cDeputy Stillman and K9 Haakon have been a rock solid team that have made countless, positive and lasting impacts on the community they bravely and proudly served,\u201d the sheriff\u2019s office wrote. In 2015, Haakon was stabbed in the neck by a suspect who was wanted on several felony warrants. He was rushed to a clinic and had to get emergency surgery. \u201cPretty traumatizing to see all the blood. I didn\u2019t think he was going to make it,\u201d Stillman told FOX40 back in 2018. Since his injury, the sheriff\u2019s office said the K-9 has had trouble breathing, especially because of his large size. The K-9 would often make visits to local schools. \u201cK9 Haakon will always be remembered,\u201d the sheriff\u2019s office said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
