CINCINNATI (Gray News) – A police department in Ohio is mourning the loss of a very important pillar of its community this past weekend.

The Colerain Township Police Department said one of its K-9s, named Kudo, died on Sunday.

The department said Kudo’s importance can’t be overstated; he was one of the K-9’s that helped launch the Colerain Township Police Department’s K-9 unit in 2015.

“Heaven gained a good boy today,” the department wrote in a Facebook post.

Kudo reportedly accomplished a lot during his police career all the way into his retirement through Blue Line K-9 Project.

Several photos of officials saying goodbye to Kudo as an American flag was lain over his body were also shared by the department.

“Rest easy K9 Kudo, and thank you for everything,” the post reads.
