Our thoughts are with K9 Leo, his Handler and the Marion County Sheriff's Office K9 Unit. Well wishes for a speedy recovery! 💙🐾

Update:
Over the last few days, Leo maintained that fighting spirit. However, Leo’s injuries were too severe to overcome this morning, and his passing will be felt by all of us here in my office and in our community.

I would ask that in the coming days, weeks, and months, that you keep our K-9 team in your thoughts and prayers. They are going to need it. I said it yesterday, and I will say it again. Here in Marion County, we work together to make this the great place that it is. But that community bond just seems to shine so much more brightly during dark times.

____________________________________________________
SUNDAY UPDATE: K9 Leo is still stable with good vitals but is still in critical condition. We’re overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and prayers for our K9 and his handler. For those who want to show support with cards and gifts, please drop them off at Marion County Sheriff’s Office Central Operations on Monday instead of UF Veterinary Hospital.

Our mailing address is PO Box 1987, Ocala, FL 34478

Our physical address is 692 NW 30th Ave, Ocala, FL

Your kindness is deeply appreciated!

UPDATE ON K-9 LEO:
K-9 Leo is stable with good vitals but still in critical condition. Let's keep those prayers coming for his recovery and for his handler, K-9 Cpl. Tortora, who's by his side through it all.

——————————————————————-
PLEASE PRAY FOR K-9 "LEO"

Citizens, today, our hearts are heavy as we ask for your prayers and support for our brave K-9 “Leo.” In the line of duty, Leo was shot while fearlessly serving to protect our community.

This morning, at approximately 9 am, our deputies responded to a call in the 900 block of NE 144th Court in Silver Springs. It was in response to a situation involving a suspect accused of Battery by Strangulation. The suspect was located in the backyard, where he initiated gunfire towards our deputies, injuring K-9 Leo in the exchange. Responding with necessary force, deputies returned fire, resulting in the apprehension of the suspect, who was transported to the hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.

Leo has been rushed to UF Veterinary Hospital, where their dedicated team is doing everything possible to save him; we hold onto hope and pray for his recovery.

Leo isn't just a member of our force; he's family. His loyalty, courage, and unwavering dedication to his duty embody the very essence of what it means to serve and protect. His sacrifice today reminds us of the dangers our deputies face each day to keep our community safe.

Let's rally together as a community, sending love and prayers to K-9 Leo and his dedicated handler.

Hi! I’m Cass and my owners are wanting me to have a solid level of obedience training, so we can have a happy future together. They said the training will teach me things like not jumping on people, to listen when I’m called, and to fix some other things that my mom and dad don’t really like. Wish me luck on my Advanced 6 week board and train! 🐾

This is Napu, who knew this big tough guy enjoyed playing with hula hoops? Napu came to us with pretty high reactivity to visitors and the doorbell and no obedience.

He just went home a totally different dog and no doubt will make his family an excellent companion from here on out.

In Chamorro, the language of Guam, Napu means Wave. So hang 8 dude and make us proud! 🤙🌊

Sweet Willow turned into an absolute rock star! She mastered her skills and was so impressive at her go home today!! You go girl!! Enjoy this new chapter with your family!! ❤️

Life’s too short to not take some breaks during training for belly rubs….at least that’s what Ace keeps telling me 🤷🏼‍♂️

09/05/2023

These two have been hard at work and getting better everyday!! Home soon to a new and better life with their families, with a clear understanding of the rules and expected behavior!

Willow the Cockapoo could not be leash walked, counter surfed and ran away everytime the door opened. Now she won't leave my side, does not go out the door without permission and understands the counters are not for her.

Kane the Rottie just drug his poor owner everywhere and could not be controlled. A true bull in a China shop. Now he walks in a heel with a loose leash with no pulling at all, sits automatically when I stop and downs on command!

Such a rewarding thing to help people and their dogs live together in harmony instead of conflict!
