A Tribute to Jordan
Since 2000, Jordan was John’s constant companion. A yellow lab with a heart of gold and knack for learning anything new, she quickly went from family pet to law enforcement K9. In 2005 she began her law enforcement career by accompanying John on countless truck, ATV, and foot patrols. Jordan was instrumental in finding hidden wildlife and illegal drug evidence on numerous details, which resulted in several cases being solved.
In 2006, she started reconnaissance hikes with the Santa Clara County Marijuana Eradication Team and subsequently found several active cultivation sites throughout the area for the MET. In 2009, Jordan was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer and she passed away in April of 2010. Though she is missed dearly every single day, it is a comfort knowing that she made many contributions in the field as a K9 Companion and brightened countless lives with her boundless energy and gentle spirit. |
