If you don't have a clue what happen keep your mouth shut! Because I searched for Max and so did the handler for 24 hours straight!!! You have no clue what that dog meant to the handler and our county!

A K9 outside in a pen with no security cameras and a latch with no lock

Heck Sunday was cold rain till noon and then just plain cold until Monday. Police was supposed to be this animals friend and he put the poor animal out in the wet cold ??? What a good friend !?!?!? a smart dog will learn how to operate a simple latch. My dog does. They usually just stay inside because they are well behaved and they KNOW better. Max , sorry your handler mistreated you that way buddy.

Wouldn't be surprised if the officer was just stoned & forgot to secure the latch. Even if not under the influence, he probably forgot the latch & the dog got out. Now they will blame it on an unknown subject & say that the dog was taken & killed. Hmmm just sounds fishy to me.

How the hell does a sheriff lose his K9 dog?Barney Fife must have been in charge that day.Ran off and forgot his gun too ,I bet
