Kaiser
The MWDM gives every fallen Police K9 and MWD a full service with Color Guard, bagpipes, bugler, and many other things all free of charge to the handler. The MWDM Salute Team escorts the handler and the fallen K9s ashes into the service, a howling salute was done by Kaiser and a Missing Dog (Man) Formation is done. They have also allowed Therapy and Service Dogs to be honored here and the team escorts the handlers at those service as well.
Last year the MWDM Salute Team was there almost every weekend from May through the end of October paying their respects to fallen MWD K9s, Police K9s, Service K9s and Therapy K9s. We really want to honor them. A full size statue of Kaiser will be representing the team and will be next to a granite wall listing the K9 team members' names we lose too soon!
Kaiser was not just a team member on the MWDM Salute Team, but he was also a therapy dog that visited Seniors, Veterans, mentally challenged adults, Fire Departments, Rehab Centers and many other places. He was a gift from above that I will forever be grateful to have been chosed to be his person.
