Loyalty, love and unstoppable courage: Kane County says goodbye to slain police dog Hudson, saying he displayed 'unwavering bravery'
Hudson was a Kane County sheriff's office police dog for just a little more than two years, but his brief career -- cut short when he was shot to death last week -- made a significant impact.
In a gymnasium at Kaneland Harter Middle School in Sugar Grove, Hudson's fellow sheriff's officers paid their respects at the start of the memorial service, followed by more than 100 police and therapy dogs from departments across the region.Hudson, a 4-year-old Dutch shepherd, died May 24 while apprehending a man who was fleeing from police in a stolen vehicle. The chase passed through several communities before coming to an end at a busy intersection on Randall Road in Batavia.
Christ Community Church Pastor Steve Gallagher said Hudson was dedicated to his"God-given calling." Like all people and animals, God gave Hudson a task to perform, Gallagher said.And on the day Hudson died,"his dedication to his calling was once again on display," Gallagher said. After the service, police escorted Hudson's cremated remains to the sheriff's office in St. Charles.When a musician began playing"Amazing Grace" on a bagpipe at the start of the ceremony, some of the canine guests began barking. We don't know if they were trying to sing along.
