History: K-9 Ike was tragically struck and killed in the line of duty in May 2014. While his handler was conducting a traffic stop, K-9 Ike was alerted to something outside of his patrol vehicle, jumped out of it to investigate and was struck by a passing vehicle. K-9 Ike bravely served with the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office for three years.

Funds provide care for our WCSO retired canines. Visit and Like our Facebook page: K9 Ike Foundation. We thank you for your support!!
