Hearts are heavy at the Richmond Police Department today after loyal K-9 officer, Jackie, was laid to rest. Jackie, a German Shepherd Dog, was euthanized after a 16-month-long battle with cancer. She was 9-years-old. According to Lieutenant Lowell Neinast, Jackie was a narcotics officer that was responsible for the seizure of several million dollars worth of drug cartel money that was being transported to and from Mexico. She also located several thousands of pounds of illegal narcotics. \u201cShe was one of the best K-9 officers we\u2019ve ever had,\u201d Neinast said. Jackie took her work seriously, Neinast noted, but she took playtime seriously, too. \u201cShe just had the friendliest demeanor you would ever see in a dog. She was very active and very playful.\u201d Despite her illness, Jackie remained an upbeat and loyal officer until her death. \u201cShe remained a loyal and true dog to the end,\u201d Neinast said. \u201cShe served with honor.\u201d Neinast said that the whole department is mourning her loss. \u201cShe was a friend to all of us. Everyone loved her,\u201d he said. Jackie\u2019s handler, Officer Todd Ganey, is especially devastated by her loss. She lived with Ganey, and Ganey cared for her through her battle with cancer. \u201cThis is really tough for (Ganey),\u201d Neinast said. Neinast added, \u201cShe served the residents of Fort Bend County, and all of Texas as well. She won\u2019t be forgotten.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
