This is one of the most thoughtful things done in a city to pay tribute to a fallen hero. Rex was from the Netherlands and became a part of Greenville, Tx police force and died at age 8. The city of Greenville is holding a memorial service for him and is allowing citizens to bring dog toys that will be donated to the local animal shelter. Rex was named the Top Narcotics Dog in U.S. in 2017 and was also named the top k-9 partner. This gesture to a fallen hero is extremely appreciated by the community of Greenville. “While K9 Rex and Greenville Officer Pemberton are with another agency, we have all felt the loss and are pulling together to support Officer Pemberton and the GPD family,” Haines said from the Greenville Sheriff Department.
