R.I.P. Kane, thank you for your service.

It is with profound sadness that the Orange County Sheriff’s Department announces the passing of Orange County Sheriff K9 Unit Kane, a loyal partner, dedicated protector, and cherished member of our law enforcement family.

From 2021 to 2026, K9 Kane faithfully served the citizens of Orange County with unwavering courage, professionalism, and heart. Throughout his career, he stood beside his handlers, Deputy Malkov and Reserve Lieutenant Klappenback, forming partnerships built on trust, dedication, and an unbreakable bond.

K9 Kane was recently diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. Despite the excellent medical care he received, he did not win the fight.

Please join us in honoring K9 Kane’s extraordinary service and remembering the impact he made on our department and our community.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💙🇺🇸🫡

Big shout out to Anaheim PD K9 who assisted with an investigation which led to 2,200 lbs of m**h being recovered in Anaheim. That's ONE TON of illegal drugs off the streets. GREAT JOB!!👏🤩👍

Great job, GOOD BOY!!

Last night, K-9Officer Irvine and his partner, K-9 Enzo, conducted a traffic enforcement stop for a vehicle code violation.

During the investigation, K-9 Enzo alerted to the vehicle. A subsequent search led to the discovery of approximately 15 kilograms of co***ne.

Thanks to the vigilance and teamwork of Officer Irvine and K-9 Enzo, a significant amount of illegal narcotics were removed from our community and kept off of our streets.

Great work by our K-9 team in helping keep our community safe!

RIP Jax, thank you for your service. You're a GOOD BOY💛💛

Today, with heavy hearts, the Fullerton Police Canine Association announces the passing of retired Fullerton Police K-9 Jax, who crossed the rainbow bridge on May 19, 2026, after a courageous battle with cancer.

K-9 Jax faithfully served the Fullerton community for seven years alongside his handler with unwavering loyalty, courage, and dedication. After an incredible career, Jax retired in 2022 and transitioned from protecting our community to enjoying a well-earned retirement.

Jax’s impact extended far beyond his service years. In 2018, he inspired the creation of the Fullerton Police Canine Association, and we are incredibly thankful our foundation was able to support his ongoing medical treatment throughout retirement.

Without the generosity of our community, supporters, and local businesses through donations, Jax’s long and well-enjoyed retirement would not have been possible. Your support gave him additional time surrounded by love, comfort, and the family who cared for him so deeply.

Like so many of our four-legged partners, Jax was more than just a police dog — he was a teammate, protector, and family member.

We extend our deepest condolences to Jax’s handler, family, and everyone whose lives he touched throughout his years of service.

Run free, Jax. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. You were a good boy to the very end.
🖤💙🌈 🐾
