Griff
Strength and Courage

Griff was Kathy's birthday present to replace her patrol K-9 that had been injured. Griff is a force to be reckoned with "on the street".

A true hero, Griff saved his human partner's life in January 2006. For his act of bravery in the line of duty, he was named 2006 Hero Dog of the Year by the German Shepherd Dog Club of Northeast Ohio and Bil-Jac. GRIFF HAS PASSED AWAY, BUT HIS COURAGE AND STRENGTH LIVE ON IN HIS PROGENY OF WHICH MANY "PROTECT AND SERVE". A TRULY GREAT DOG!
