It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Retired K9 Cezar.
On April 17, 2017, K9 Officer Bryce Kukelhan selected Cezar at just 11 months old, beginning a partnership built on loyalty, dedication, and service to the citizens of Adams County. Throughout his career, Cezar served with strength and heart, always ready to work and always by his handler’s side.
On September 11, 2025, Cezar officially retired from duty and transitioned into his favorite role — full-time family member. He quickly embraced retirement life, especially enjoying time spent swimming and never being far from his beloved toys.
Cezar was more than a K9; he was a partner, a protector, and a cherished member of the Sheriff’s Office family. His service and devotion will never be forgotten.
Please keep Officer Kukelhan and his family in your thoughts during this difficult time.
Rest easy, Cezar. Thank you for your faithful service. 🐾💙
