Cushing's disease, also known as hyperadrenocorticism, is a condition that has both puzzled and concerned dog owners for years. It's a disorder characterized by the overproduction of cortisol by the adrenal glands. This hormone, cortisol, plays a critical role in managing stress, weight, infection, and blood sugar levels. It helps the body respond to stress, regulates metabolism, and modulates the immune system. When in excess, however, it can wreak havoc on a dog's body, leading to a range of symptoms and health issues.

In remembrance... some of the courageous K9's who dedicated their lives to protecting our communities.
๐ Honoring Our Beloved K9 Veterans ๐พ
Today, we pay tribute to the courageous souls who served alongside our officers, loyal companions who stood by their sides through thick and thin. Our K9 veterans, though they may no longer walk among us, hold a special place in our hearts that will never fade.
From sniffing out dangers to providing comfort in times of distress, these incredible animals served selflessly, without asking for anything in return. They were more than just service animals; they were family, friends, and heroes.
Their dedication and sacrifice will never be forgotten. Let us take a moment to remember and honor their legacy, grateful for the freedom and security they helped preserve.
Rest peacefully, dear K9 veterans. Your duty is done, but your memory lives on forever in our hearts. ๐๐พ #K9Heroes #AlwaysRemembered
*Although the video below only includes a few of our most recent K9's who have crossed the rainbow bridge. We are still so appreciative to have had the opportunity to help care for many others over the past 30 years.
