******For Immediate Release******

Incident: Death Notification – K9 Ranger

Date: October 15, 2026

Location: 4800 Ashford Dunwoody Rd Dunwoody, GA 30338

The Dunwoody Police Department is saddened to share that Ranger, one of the department’s K-9s, has died.

As part of a planned transition to introduce Ranger to a new handler, he was boarded at an out-of-state training facility to continue his training. While there, Ranger escaped the facility. He was later found deceased near the facility by local animal control officers.

Ranger was one of the department’s first K-9s and was a valued member of the Dunwoody Police Department. Our thoughts are with the officers and staff who worked alongside and cared for him.

Please direct all media requests to Sgt. Michael Cheek via email at [email protected].

Misdemeanor my 🫏! It should be a felony and he should be sitting in that cell right now. This is why this continues. Judges like this are deplorable.
