Flomaton Police Department’s K-9 Boo Passes Away
February 4, 2023
Flomaton Police Department’s K-9 Boo passed away Friday.
Boo was rushed to an emergency veterinarian after suffering sudden health complications. She passed away with her handler and family by her side.
K-9 Boo was a National Narcotic Detector Dog Association certified narcotics dog who also excelled in human tracking, according to Police Chief Johnny Wilson. She served with the Flomaton Police Department for over 2 years with her K-9 Handler Cpl. Charles Land, recording many successful narcotic seizures leading to dozens of arrests, and had many successful tracks.
“Hero’s don’t die, especially ones like Boo. She was loved by many, and will live on eternalized in the hearts of others,” Land wrote in a tribute. “I appreciate you all the for the kind texts and calls. K9 Boo was the best partner anyone could have and there wasn’t a day that went by that I didn’t know that. For over two years we patrolled and protected the town of Flomaton and never once did she hesitate to collar up and jump into the patrol car, no matter the hour or what we had going on she was always ready to ride. She was many things, a hero, a consequence, a friend, a partner, but most of all she was family, MY family. There wasn’t a day that went by that she was not loved unconditionally.
“K9 Boo, EOW 02/03/2023. You have earned your wings sweet girl. You can can rest easy now, I have it from here.”
“Thank you for your faithful, and dedicated service to the Flomaton Police Department K9 Boo, You will be missed by many,” Wilson said.
