Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office is mourning the loss of K-9 Officer Cigo, and crediting the animal with saving his handler’s life, in a shootout on Christmas Eve. The shooting left the K-9 Officer Cigo dead. You can DIRECTLY support Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office in obtaining a replacement K9 Officer from Southern Coast K9 Inc.!

Cigo was only a 3 year-old canine, doing his job in saving the life of his handler, Officer Wardell, and other Deputies, as he was shot pursuing a fleeing suspect. After K9 Officer Cigo was pronounced dead at an animal hospital, Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office was quick to post several tributes on their Social Media pages.
