SLIDELL, LOUISIANA POLICE REQUEST NPDF ASSISTANCE IN REPLACING
K-9 LOST IN THE LINE OF DUTY

MORGANVILLE, NEW JERSEY, October 3, 2022 Executive Director Joseph Occhipinti announced that the National Police Defense Foundation is establishing a canine memorial fund for the Slidell, Louisiana Police Department who tragically lost K-9 “Kano” on August 11, 2022 in the line of duty. Sgt. Jake Morris and K-9 Kano were dispatched to a burglary/theft in progress. Upon arrival the suspect fled on foot and entered a wooded area. K-9 Kano and Morris tracked the suspect and eventually apprehended him. Shortly thereafter K-9 Kano became lethargic and was having trouble breathing. The dog was rushed to an animal clinic and was diagnosed with spleen cancer. Kano died due to extreme exertion compounded by the cancer.

The NPDF is announcing the creation of the K-9 Kano Memorial Fund to provide funds to replace Kano with another dog that the Slidell, Louisiana Police Department can train for their special needs. The NPDF urges our members and anyone with an interest in law enforcement K-9 programs to make a tax-deductible donation for this worthy cause

The National Police Defense Foundation is an IRS designated 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization under registration number 13-3830191 and therefore all donations are tax-deductible. Please support the NPDF’s K-9 Kano Memorial Fund below with your fully tax-deductible donation.
