The Situation
On May 5, an unfortunate on duty incident happened where Axel was accidentally left unattended in a field for 20 minutes after playing fetch. An emergency situation was tended to by his handler while Axel was in the field. A bystander noticed Axel laying in the grass by himself and reported a loose dog. Axel was his normal self with the bystander; friendly and happy. Axel nor the bystander were hurt in any way. Due to this incident, an administrative investigation was conducted and Axel was officially retired from active law enforcement service.

Under the Illinois Police Dog Retirement Act (510 ILCS 82/5), A police dog which is deemed no longer fit for public service, shall be offered by the law enforcement agency to the officer or employee who had custody and control of the animal during its services [510 ILCS 82/5]. While his handler stepped forward immediately to adopt Axel, a legal disagreement has arisen.
