Meet Sombra, the 6-year-old German shepherd who became the cartels’ worst nightmare.
Her nose for narc*tics uncovered over 9 tons of coc**ne hidden in banana crates, sneaker boxes, and auto parts — bringing down shipments worth millions. She helped arrest 245 suspects, and hit the Urabeños cartel so hard that its feared leader, “Otoniel,” personally put a $70,000 price on her head.
Now under 24-hour armed protection at Bogotá’s El Dorado International Airport, Sombra still wakes up at 6 AM to search packages, wearing her neon vest and greeting passengers with tail wags.
She’s won two K-9 Medals of Courage, and in a country where over 1,800 officers have fallen to the dr*g war, she’s become a living symbol of resilience.
