MPD Unveils New K-9 Memorial outside Station
The Medford Police Department unveiled a new K-9 Memorial today alongside City Councilors, leadership, retired MPD K-9 handlers, family, and friends.
According to the department's Facebook page, the memorial, located in front of the Medford Police Station, replaces the vandalized tribute to K-9 Oxer, who served alongside handler Tony Young as part of Medford’s first police canine team. It recognizes K-9 Oxer and the many police dogs who have faithfully served the Medford community.
In addition to the names of MPD's canines, the memorial bears the inscription, “In gratitude for the dedication and sacrifice of Medford Police K9 teams. May their courage, loyalty, and service inspire us always.”
