We consider ourselves to be extremely fortunate to be able to train with some fantastic handlers/K9s from our local surrounding agencies. We were also pretty lucky that one of our deputies got some really cool footage from his drone.

Great day with the local agencies at Camp Far West for some dog training. Plus the dogs loved the water.

End of Watch for K9 Enzo. 6/11/2026

K9 Enzo fearlessly served alongside his partner Deputy James Middleton on patrol starting on April 14th, 2013. During his decorated career, K9 Enzo had many surrenders, helping bring an end to potentially dangerous situations.

In addition to his patrol efforts, K9 Enzo served on the Sutter County SED team during the entirety of his career. K9 Enzo competed in several canine trials where he won awards in obedience, handler protection, agility, narcotics, and searches. K9 Enzo was ranked top five in the Western States canine trials.

K9 Enzo’s last apprehension before his retirement, brought an end to a chaotic scene where he apprehended a dangerous individual who had attempted to shoot at law enforcement.

In was no secret when K9 Enzo arrived on scene everyone was much safer and everyone knew he was a partner that could be counted on.

Thank you K9 Enzo for your years of faithful service. Rest easy.

End of Watch for K9 Iko — 5/18/2026

K9 Iko began his service in January 2015 and dedicated the last 10 years to protecting and serving alongside his handlers and fellow officers with unwavering loyalty, courage, and heart. More than just a partner, Iko was family, a trusted teammate, and a constant source of strength to everyone who had the honor of working beside him.

After a long and honorable career, Iko retired in 2025. In the end, he passed doing what he loved most — surrounded at home by his family, his fellow K9 handlers, and his dad.

Thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and the countless lives you touched along the way. Your watch may have ended, but your legacy never will.

Rest easy, K9 Iko. End of Watch: 5/18/2026 🖤🐾

We are so glad to hear K9 Ty is okay and on the road to recovery. We wish him and his partner the best on the road back to doing what they do best.

EARLY MORNING TRAFFIC STOP LEADS TO FELONY ARREST

Early this morning on Interstate 80 in the City of Dixon, deputies encountered a vehicle traveling at a dangerously slow speed, creating a hazard for other motorists. When a Solano County Sheriff’s Office K9 deputy attempted a traffic stop, the driver failed to yield, leading to a pursuit.

With assistance from the California Highway Patrol, a spike strip was successfully deployed, bringing the vehicle to a stop near I-80 and Travis Boulevard.

The driver remained uncooperative and refused repeated commands. After multiple attempts to gain compliance, K9 Ty was deployed to assist with the arrest. During the apprehension, the suspect violently attacked Ty, stabbing him multiple times in the neck and leg.

Ty was immediately pulled to safety by his handler and rushed to a nearby emergency veterinary clinic, where he was stabilized before being transferred to UC Davis Veterinary Hospital for surgery.

We are relieved to share that K9 Ty is now recovering at home. He is in stable condition and in good spirits.

The suspect was taken into custody, medically cleared at a local hospital, and booked into the Solano County Jail.

We are incredibly grateful to the teams at Solano-Napa Pet Emergency Clinic and UC Davis Veterinary Hospital for their lifesaving care. We also extend our sincere thanks to the California Highway Patrol, Vacaville Police Department, and Fairfield Police Department for their assistance.

K9 Ty’s bravery and dedication are a powerful reminder of the risks our K9 partners face in the line of duty. 💙🐾
