Justice for wix!

recipient: Brown county police department

This is the 5th k9 officer to die due to being left in a car this summer. This should not happen ever! No animal deserves this. Justice needs to be taken. And I believe a heart monitor on all k9s is mandatory. If there is any sign of distress it will go off to the officer/handler. They deserve love & be taken care of. Please help to make this change.

Update #18 years ago

The K9 named Wix was a 3yr old male Belgian Malinois died. Wix & his handler, Deputy Austin Lemberger were outside the car, & the dog was left in the squad car with the engine and a/c running. The sheriff's office says Lemberger checked on Wix regularly Wednesday morning. But he found Wix unresponsive around 12:30 pm. The a/c had failed & the car's K9 heat alarm did'nt activate.
